There might be some hidden oceans lurking around Uranus.
in the magnetic field of Uranus. But on a closer look, Cohen and his colleagues found that the electrons don't exhibit the characteristics expected of a substorm injection.
In order to maintain the pitch angle observed by Voyager 2, a constant source of electrons would be required, significant enough to overcome the scattering and loss that would occur due to plasma waves in the planetary magnetosphere. Without a source of this nature, in the right spot and at the right angle, the team determined through modeling, the pitch angle distribution of the electrons would become uniform within mere hours.
