Barrow (1972) found a significant correlation when he combined the daily geomagnetic Cp-index and Jovian decametric emissions recorded from 1961 to 1968. The author estimated the delay in days between the arrival of particles at the Earth and at Jupiter and found a delay of about 9-days and 12-days depending on the geometry configuration of Earth-Sun-Jupiter. These and other earlier correlation studies were reviewed by Carr and Desch (1976) who discuss the conflicting results indicating anti-correlation, no solar influence, or positive correlations. One can note that these investigations are based on the assumption that solar particles disturb the Earth?s magnetic field and later on the Jovian magnetosphere where they trigger by some means the decametric radio emissions (Fig.1 ? right panel). More detailed analysis of Genova et al. (1989) showed that only emission not controlled by the Io satellite (so-called non-Io-controlled emissions) could be subject to solar effect.
Case of Jovian hectometric emissions:
The space era allowed us to realize the existence of other Jovian radio emissions which are not observable from ground-based radio stations. One of them is the Jovian hectometric (HOM) radiation which was detected by early space-borne radio telescopes (Brown, 1974).
