Particle excitation, airglow and H2 vibrational disequilibrium in the atmosphere of Jupiter [PDF]
The extreme ultraviolet EUV emission produced by particle excitation of the hydrogen atmospheres of Jupiter and Saturn is examined using model calculations to determine the nature of the energy deposition process and the effect of such processes on ...

The Composition of Saturn’s Rings
The origin and evolution of Saturn's rings is critical to understanding the Saturnian system as a whole. Here, we discuss the physical and chemical composition of the rings, as a foundation for evolutionary models described in subsequent chapters. We review the physical characteristics of the main rings, and summarize current constraints on their ...

Subcentimeter-size particle distribution functions in planetary rings from Voyager radio and photopolarimeter occultation data [PDF]
Analysis of measurements of the scattered and direct components of Voyager 1 radio occultation signals at 3.5 and 13 cm wavelengths yield estimates of the distribution functions of supracentimeter-size particles and thickness of relatively broad regions ...
