木星極光紅外成像儀

木星極光紅外成像儀（Jovian Infrared Auroral Mapper，JIRAM）是前往木星的朱諾號太空船攜帶，由意大利提供的影像光譜儀^[1]。在歐洲太空總署（ESA）的羅塞塔號、金星特快車、和卡西尼－惠更斯號任務都有類似的儀器^[1]。JIRAM的主要目標是使用波長在2-5μm之間的影像光譜儀研究木星上層大氣層直至氣壓為5-7帕（72-102磅/平方英寸）深處的大氣層^[1] Jupiter's "hot spots" and auroral regions are targeted for study.^[2]。

它希望描繪出H+
3離子、氨和磷化氫的分佈^[3]。H+
3的氫在地球上非常罕見，但是在宇宙中是非常普通的離子，稱為氫分子合質子或三氫陽離子^[4]。
