IN the interesting account of the observations of Messrs. Henry on the rings of Saturn (NATURE, May 29, p. 105) they seem to consider the bright ring they then saw as new. On looking over my note-book I find I observed indications of such a bright ring extending inwards as far as the limb of ball. The exact words are, “I see a brighter line here,” with

Methods for ray-tracing thermal modelling of Saturn's main rings [PDF]
The thermal emission and temperatures of the main rings of Saturn depend on the energy the ring particles absorb, reflect and scatter and/or on their Bond albedo, emissivity, thermal inertia, rotation rate and porosity.

Rings of Saturn: Fellini Rosi1
This article offers a comparative reading of Gianfranco Rosi’s Sacro GRA (‘Holy GRA’) (2013) and Federico Fellini’s Roma (1972). It sets Sacro GRA within Rosi’s career, his ambiguous identity as an ‘Italian’ filmmaker and the film’s relation to the ...

What Confines the Rings of Saturn? [PDF]
Abstract The viscous spreading of planetary rings is believed to be counteracted by satellite torques, through either an individual resonance or overlapping resonances. For the A ring of Saturn, it has been commonly believed that the satellite Janus alone can prevent the ring from spreading, via its 7:6 Lindblad resonance.

Synchronization mechanism of sharp edges in rings of Saturn [PDF]
We propose a new mechanism which explains the existence of enormously sharp edges in the rings of Saturn. This mechanism is based on the synchronization phenomenon due to which the epicycle rotational phases of particles in the ring, under certain ...

One could become an expert on Saturn's iconic rings pretty easily in the early 1970s, as very little was known about them beyond the distinction between the A, B, and C rings, and the Cassini Division or "gap" between rings A and B (Alexander, 1962; Bobrov, 1970).
