... In recent years, substantial information concerning the Io torus has been published. ... Explaining the observed steady state rotation of the torus seems to be difficult. The angular velocity of the torus must be in accordance with the celestial mechanics laws, of the same orders as Io's one. ... We wish to straighten out the situation describing the main geometric and kinematic features of the Io torus using a steady state model based on some of Alfven's ideas [Alfven, 1981]. ...

SPECTRUM ANALYZER OF MAGNETIC PHENOMENA SAMW . Spectrum analyzer allows onboard computation of electromagnetic waves spectra registered (observed) in the ionosphere and magnetosphere in the ELF/VLF frequency band. ... It consists of magnetic antenna, preamplifier, 16 bit sigma delta AD converter, DSP processor and telemetry interface. ... The channels of lower frequencies are averaged and transmitted with lower repetition rate so the telemetry volume is reduced. ... Dynamic range: 90 dB . ...

. N OTE: . Only clusters with R<60 kpc were used to compute the spatial parameters and metallicity gradients for all subsystems except the corona. The numbers in parantheses give the number of clusters for which the corresponding parameter is known. The X O scale length of the old halo is strongly distorted by the observed asymmetry of the distribution of the corresponding clusters projected onto the XY plane ( Fig. 4А ) . discussion in the text | previous table .
