Jupiter is the planet with the most intense and extensive radio radiation in our solar system. The radio spectrum is composed of no less than half a dozen components, from low-frequency emissions, such as quasi-periodic bursts (QP) or trapped continuum radiation (from a few kHz to tens of kHz), to high-frequency emissions produced over the poles, ranging from a few MHz to 40 MHz. Since July 2016, Juno has been orbiting Jupiter, performing a polar orbit every 53 days during its prime mission, sampling all latitudes, longitudes and local times. These polar orbits allow Juno to pass directly into the auroral zones, where electrons are accelerated and produce the auroral radio emissions, but also through the plasma disk, where other types of radio emissions are produced.
In this presentation, I will focus on the main results obtained by Juno during its main mission concerning radio emissions, and show how radio emissions can be used to infer in situ conditions.
