Abstract
Auroral emission originating at the foot of the Io-associated flux tube at Jupiter has been detected with a high-resolution spectrometer/telescope on board the Orbiting Astronomical Observatory Copernicus. The emission intensity at Ly-alpha is found to be greater than 100 kR, and the emission is located at zenographic latitudes greater than 65°.
