An Evolving View of Saturn’s Dynamic Rings [PDF]
Science, 2010 Saturn's Secrets Probed The Cassini spacecraft was launched on 15 October 1997. It took it almost 7 years to reach Saturn, the second-largest planet in the solar system. After almost 6 years of observations of the series of interacting moons, rings, and magnetospheric plasmas, known as the Kronian system,

Edges of Saturn’s rings are fractal [PDF]
SpringerPlus, 2015 The images recently sent by the Cassini spacecraft mission (on the NASA website http://saturn.jpl.nasa.gov/photos/halloffame/) show the complex and beautiful rings of Saturn. Over the past few decades, various conjectures were advanced that Saturn's rings are Cantor-like sets, although no convincing fractal analysis of actual images has ever appeared ...

Yb2‐Tb Upconversion in a Hetero‐Trimetallic Molecular Lanthanide Complex
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Lanthanides are at the forefront of photon upconversion in molecular systems; however, the chemical nature of the lanthanides makes site‐specific coordination chemistry difficult to achieve. Here, we employ kinetically stabile building blocks to achieve hetero‐trimetallic 4f complexes with complete site‐specific chemical control.

The brightening of Saturn’s F ring [PDF]
Icarus, 2012 Image photometry reveals that the F ring is approximately twice as bright during the Cassini tour as it was during the Voyager flybys of 1980 and 1981. It is also three times as wide and has a higher integrated optical depth. We have performed photometric measurements of more than 4,800 images of Saturn's F ring taken over a five-year period with ...

What Confines the Rings of Saturn? [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2017 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.

The Astronomical Journal, 1976 A total of 202 photographic plates of Saturn taken from four different locations and in seven different colors have been studied in order to define better the variation in ring brightness with solar phase angle, declination of the earth with respect to the ring plane, orbital phase angle of the ring particles, and wavelength.

Nature, 1884 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

Contributions to Plasma Physics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Warm dense matter (WDM) is a complex state, where quantum effects, thermal excitations, and strong interparticle correlations coexist. Understanding its microscopic composition and medium‐induced modifications of atomic and molecular properties is essential for planetary modeling, fusion research, and high‐energy‐density experiments.

Embedded Interactions and Selective Disclosure: Network Effects on Conversations aboard Skylab
Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.How do absent others influence our interactions? We argue in this paper that interactions are embedded within networks formed by chains of specific relationships between known third parties. The anticipation of future interactions with external others conditions our interpretation of the current situation and affects our behavior in the interaction. We
