Effect of the magnetospheric plasma interaction and solar illumination on ion sputtering of Europa's surface ice
For the entire ion energy range observed at Europa, we calculate spatially resolved maps of
the surface sputtering rates of H2O, O2, and H2 from impacts by magnetospheric ions. We …

The contribution of electrons to the sputter-produced O2 exosphere on Europa
Electrons contribute a strong radiation component to the surface bombardment of Europa.
However, they are not typically considered to contribute to erosion of the surface H 2 O-ice …
