| Abstract | Jupiter is the local-space archetype for many astrophysical bodies which cannotbe visited in-situ such as exoplanets, pulsars and brown dwarfs. Over the last 2years, simultaneous Juno and XMM-Newton (XMM) Jupiter observations have provideda paradigm-shift in our understanding of how planets produce X-rays. Since Junohas no X-ray instrument, this rich array of discoveries would not have beenpossible without XMM. Significantly, Juno and XMM have revealed that Jupiter sX-ray aurora is produced when ion cyclotron waves in Jupiters magnetosphereinject energetic ions into the pole. So far, Juno has only explored Jupitersdawn-midnight sector, but for the remainder of its mission (end July 2021), itwill explore the midnight-dusk sector. see pdf for complete abstract |

| Mission Description | The European Space Agencys (ESA) X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) was launched by an Ariane 504 on December 10th 1999. XMM-Newton is ESAs second cornerstone of the Horizon 2000 Science Programme. It carries 3 high throughput X-ray telescopes with an unprecedented effective area, and an optical monitor, the first flown on a X-ray observatory. The large collecting area and ability to make long uninterrupted exposures provide highly sensitive observations. Since Earths atmosphere blocks out all X-rays, only a telescope in space can detect and study celestial X-ray sources. The XMM-Newton mission is helping scientists to solve a number of cosmic mysteries, ranging from the enigmatic black holes to the origins of the Universe itself. Observing time on XMM-Newton is being made available to the scientific community, applying for observational periods on a competitive basis. |
