Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences

Volume 36, 2008

The Rest of the Solar System

Abstract

Should one call it serendipity to have stumbled into a career in space plasma physics within the first decade of the era of satellite exploration? The author had the good fortune to have done so. In early years, she repeatedly was told that she did not look like a physicist, but it was physics that provided her a rewarding opportunity to elucidate the characteristics of the space plasmas of terrestrial and planetary magnetospheres and to discover unexpected properties of the Galilean moons of Jupiter. Here, she describes some of her scientific contributions and introduces family members, colleagues, students, and friends who helped her along her trajectory and participated in her scientific investigations.
