Which side of a tidally locked moon experiences higher radiation?
+0
−0
Looking most specifically regarding the moons around Saturn, Jupiter, and Uranus. I've been unable to get a concrete answer on this through various sources. I've actually read several articles briefly mentioning the exact opposites - some say the side facing the planet receives the most radiation, while the others claim it's the side facing away from the planet. Anyone have an answer?
