Host: Dr. Morgan Rehnberg ( http://cosmicchatter.org/ & @MorganRehnberg )
Special Guest: Jeff Morgenthaler, a senior scientist at the Planetary Science Institute, likes to think of himelf as an experimental physicist whose laboratory opens to the sky. He has used a comet to measure the ionization lifetime of carbon, is using Io's atmosphere as a probe of conditions in Jupiter's magnetosphere and has constructed a small-aperture coronagraph to monitor measure Jupiter's magnetospheric response to a large volcanic eruption on Io. You can learn more about Jeff by visiting his webite: https://www.psi.edu/about/staffpage/j...
