Abstract The Galileo mission to Jupiter revealed that Europa is an ocean world. The Galileo
magnetometer experiment in particular provided strong evidence for a salty subsurface …

Jupiter's icy moon, Europa, harbors a subsurface liquid water ocean; the prospect of this
ocean being habitable motivates further exploration of the moon with the upcoming NASA …

Europa is a premier target for advancing both planetary science and astrobiology, as well as
for opening a new window into the burgeoning field of comparative oceanography. The …

The potential habitability of Europa's subsurface ocean depends on its chemical
composition, which may be reflected in that of Europa's geologically young surface …

Europa likely contains an iron‐rich metal core. For it to have formed, temperatures within
Europa reached 1250 K. Going up to that temperature, accreted chondritic minerals—for …

The five large moons of Uranus are important targets for future spacecraft missions. To
motivate and inform the exploration of these moons, we model their internal evolution …

The habitability of Europa is a property within a system, which is driven by a multitude of
physical and chemical processes and is defined by many interdependent parameters, so …

In this chapter we discuss the structure, composition, and dynamical states of the interiors of
Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. Interior structure and composition models of the …

The icy outer shell of Jupiter's moon Europa is believed to be geologically active, and
geological processes within the ice may be key to sustaining chemical disequilibria and …

A growing number of satellites in the outer solar system likely have global oceans beneath
their outer icy shells. While the presence of liquid water makes these ocean worlds …
