Abstract

Movie S1. A three-dimensional animation of the Jovian current sheet within 100 RJ based on the model and parameters in Khurana (1992) during one planetary rotation. Blue and red denote regions above and below the equator. A semi-transparent grey plane is placed at z = 0 as a spatial reference. Movie S2. A three-dimensional animation of the heliospheric current sheet within 3*10^8 km based on the model and parameters from Jokipii & Thomas (1981) during one rotation period of the sun. Blue and red denote regions above and below the equator. A semi-transparent grey plane is placed at z = 0 as a spatial reference. Movie S3. The three-dimensional distribution of current sheet crossing positions by JUNO in the right-handed System III frame, exhibiting a "ballerina-skirt" morphology similar to the model presentation in Movie S1. The color represents the current sheet height (RJ).
