Abstract

The position angle of linear polarization and the degree of circular polarization of the decimetric emission show no marked variations with time, although there may be an indication in the position angle data of a secular decrease in the inclination of the magnetic field structure. High resolution observations of the radiation belts show that the asymmetry in the emission found in synthesis maps originates from an extended region. The presence of this features accounts well for the observed variation in the position of the centroid of the emission with rotation. The radio observations suggest that any equatorial displacement of the main magnetic field structure from the center of the planet is less than 0.05 R J.
