Ionospheric conductances at the giant planets of the Solar System:a comparative study of ionization sources and the impact of meteoric ions
Meteoric ions can add a non-negligible share of ionospheric conductance at Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune for low-energy auroral electrons, yet they sit below the main conductive layer on those planets.
