Rings of Jupiter

by John Trefry

Ƶ is annulated by compositions of ultrafine nanostructural

nonspherical colloids in dust aerosol... the halo, the primary

rings, the two gossamer rings... whose asymptotic graduations

transition from one ring to the next without distinguishing

themselves as distinct entities... whose colloids’ fleeting

existence at an individual level—through 85 to 8,500 solar

periodic durations in the corporeal integrity of that unique

colloid is buffeted by plasma, electromagnetic perturbations, and

solar radiation pressures—are accelerating out of corporeal

existence... becoming a radio wave.

The limited duration of the particulate corporeality—the

reflective re-emission of solar photons transposing away angular

momentum from each unique colloid (relative to the internal axis

of rotation of the colloid) and accelerating the orbital speed of

the colloid relative to Ƶ... slowly decaying toward the

exosphere—and the endurance of the annular figuration, are

suggestive of perpetual material replenishment of the dust

aerosol from the release of dusty ejecta of meteoroids,

micrometeoroids, and infrequent asteroids impacting the proximate

satellites 4, 14, 16, and 15 (e.g. 126,000km 3 of

dust—2.6082x10 17 kg of dust—is ejecting from the impact forming the

crater centered at 30°N, 30°W on satellite 5, a captured

ellipsoidal asteroid, an ice matrix rubble pile... non-simple

polyhedra of sulfur, aliphatic polyols, and silicates in a matrix

of water ice; particles of the ejecta traveling at less than

3.22m/μ☼—amounting to 38% of the ejecta—are gravitationally drawn

back to the satellite... material is ejected at 130m/s at the

epicenter with velocities diminishing exponentially outward;

1.617x10 17 kg of ejected dust loosed into orbit, diffusively

settling into 6.5205×10 34 km 3 , occupying a space in the gossamer

ring 5.175x10 29 times larger than the crater).

The rings are vague—a luminous presence only orienting to ☉

forwardscattering into a diffraction lobe 2.7° wide relative to

the equatorial zone of Ƶ—and not radially consistent but are

discontinuous (including the very distant satellite 6 ring... not

a complete annular structure, but is—evidentiary of the

inchoative becoming of the event ramifications—an arc, adjacent

to the orbit of satellite 6, from whose ejecta (the product of a

catastrophic collision event... with another satellite) the ring

is composed) with interruptions furrowed by orbiting

satellites... most disruptively, the orbital paths of satellites

15 and 16 are creating a prominent transition (a void of material

collected by the passing bodies—ferrous ice satellites orbiting Ƶ

(rotating with the extreme velocity of 0.45km/μ☼) with orbital

durations shorter than a Ƶsol (or (☼) solar day)—exerting

gravitational spheres of influence drawing dust—ejecta from

previous meteoroid impacts—agglomerating back onto the

satellites) between the main ring and the satellite 5 gossamer

ring.

Most volumetrically significant, the halo ring is the radial

extrusion of an asymptotically decreasing triangle (on an axis

normal to the center of Ƶ) whose maximum height (the face most

proximate to Ƶ) is approximately 20,000km, although its

concentration of dust is a laminar fuage in empty space with

millionths of grams of colloidal material for each cm 3 of

vacuum... the exiguity of the material diminishing luminous

presence into commensuration with the other rings that are more

concentrated but in a much narrower cross-section.

A 1mm 3 -sized coarse silicate grain is orbiting Ƶ in the satellite

6 ring—unobstructed by anything larger than 1mm 3 , through dust

suspension, tidally locked to Ƶ (1.43x10 33 times

larger)—orbiting... approximately 0.17km/μ☼ for 1.7x10 5 solar

periodic durations—the orbit decaying 1mm each 10,000 solar

periodic durations, with a constantly increasing rate of decay, a

logarithmic spiral trajectory in response to the gravitation of

Ƶ... never repeating the same geometric relation to Ƶ, which

itself is constantly changing location—struck in a chance

glancing collision by another 1mm 3 -sized fragment—on a trajectory

resulting from two asteroids colliding—is producing .07mm 3 of

dust dispersing into 3.6225×10 10 m 3 of space in the satellite 6

ring... the silicate fragment never again contacting another

object (anything apart from strewn, diffused dust) in the

remaining 33 billion years until the universe collapses, until

the 1mm 3 silicate fragment comes into contact with all of the

material and energy ever to exist.

John operates inside the castle press and you can find him @incastellated on twitter. Once had ice cream with him. Wonderful guy
