High resolution optical (4193-6619 ร ) spectra of Io in eclipse show auroral emission in five lines: [OI] 6300, 6363, 5577 ร and Na 5889, 5896 ร . We conclude that Io's diffuse red emissions imaged by the Galileo Solid State Imager (P. E. Geissler et al. 1999, Science 285, 870-874) are due to impact o
The circumplanetary flow of Io's SO 2 atmosphere is modeled using the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method. This flow develops as gas sublimates from SO 2 frost in the warm subsolar region and flows toward the colder night-side, where it condenses. The axisymmetric model presented extends fro
