  • Abstract
    Radio astronomers of the California Institute of Technology announced recently that they have established almost conclusively the existence of a Van Allen radiation belt on the planet Jupiter. The belt is about 200,000 miles above the surface of the planet, which itself is about 85,000 miles in diameter.
