Ray trace through the JRM33 (J. E. P. Connerney et al. 2022) and Con2020 (J. E. P. Connerney et al. 2020) magnetic field models for Juno PJ-63 occultation. The left panel shows the modeled LOS magnetic field component along the ray paths from the spacecraft to Earth, displayed with a color scale indicating time from the occultation midpoint in minutes, with negative values corresponding to ingress (blue) and positive values to egress (yellow). The right panel presents a close-up three-dimensional view of the rays near Jupiter, with the Juno trajectory shown as a black line through the planet and the direction to Earth indicated by the labeled arrow. Positive and negative values indicate magnetic fields aligned and opposed to the propagation direction, respectively.
