Mission Name: CassiniThis interdisciplinary scientist (IDS) investigation will use utilize data from the various fields and particles experiments on Cassini. Among the objectives are to develop models of: (1) global MHD and generalized transport; (2) field-aligned plasma outflows for the high-latitude ionosphere of Saturn and topside ionosphere of Titan; and, (3) plasma flows between hemispheres along closed field lines that are continuously depleted by interactions between Saturn's rings and magnetosphere.
