Saturn and its Rings: Four Centuries of Imperfect Amodal Completion
i-Perception, 2019 The planet Saturn is a familiar image for us, but it presents perceptual peculiarities that impeded the discovery of its structure and which can still be misleading today.

Revolutionary Climatology: Rings of Saturn, Ringed by Red Lightning
Footprint, 2016 Walter Benjamin’s concept of historical materialism is considered as a practice of media archaeology invented through literary montage and photo philosophy.

A Large Double-ring Disk Around the Taurus M Dwarf J04124068+2438157
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Planet formation imprints signatures on the physical structures of disks. In this paper, we present high-resolution (∼50 mas, 8 au) Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array observations of 1.3 mm dust continuum and CO line emission toward the disk ...

Model of gravitational effects in Saturn’s rings
Odessa Astronomical Publications, 2019 In this work, we consider one possi- ble gravitational interaction in a system consisting of Saturn, its satellites and rings. The structure of rings can be changed because of such interactions leading to some sculpting of rings.

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 ...

Saturn's Plasma Density Depletions Along Magnetic Field Lines Connected to the Main Rings
Geophysical Research Letters, 2018 We report on a set of clear and abrupt decreases in the high‐frequency boundary of whistler mode emissions detected by Cassini at high latitudes (about ±40°) during the low‐altitude proximal flybys of Saturn. These abrupt decreases or dropouts have start

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 ...

A Gap-sharing Planet Pair Shaping the Crescent in HD 163296: A Disk Sculpted by a Resonant Chain
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 The Atacama Large Millimeter Array observations of the disk around HD 163296 have resolved a crescent-shape substructure at around 55 au, inside and off-center from a gap in the dust that extends from 38 to 62 au.

Le récit intermédial comme dispositif traumatique dans The Rings of Saturn de W. G. Sebald
Sillages Critiques, 2015 In The Rings of Saturn, the reading process is experienced by the reader in terms of temporal variations. Sebald’s novel is indeed the combination of a narrative and of visual materials — photographs in particular — which sever the narrative thread and ...
