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.

Saturn and its Rings: Four Centuries of Imperfect Amodal Completion
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
Walter Benjamin’s concept of historical materialism is considered as a practice of media archaeology invented through literary montage and photo philosophy.

Dynamics of the asteroid rings (10199) Chariklo
In 2014 it was reported on opening two rings around asteroid (10199) Chariklo (Braga-Ribas F., et al., 2014, Nature, 508, 72–75) and it became the fifth object of the Solar system known to have ring system, after Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune.

Origin and Evolution of Saturn's Ring System [PDF]
The origin and long-term evolution of Saturn's rings is still an unsolved problem in modern planetary science. In this chapter we review the current state of our knowledge on this long-standing question for the main rings (A, Cassini Division, B, C), the F Ring, and the diffuse rings (E and G).

Saturn's rings as a seismograph to probe Saturn's internal structure [PDF]
As it has already done for Earth, the sun, and the stars, seismology has the potential to radically change the way the interiors of giant planets are studied. In a sequence of events foreseen by only a few, observations of Saturn's rings by the Cassini spacecraft have rapidly broken ground on giant planet seismology. Gravity directly couples the planet'

Model of gravitational effects in Saturn’s rings
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.

A Large Double-ring Disk Around the Taurus M Dwarf J04124068+2438157
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 ...

Disruption of Saturn's ring particles by thermal stress [PDF]
Spacecraft and ground-based observations show that the main rings of Saturn lack particles larger than 10 m. Tidal or collisional destruction of satellites/comets have been proposed as the origin of the main rings; however, Saturn's tide alone cannot grind km-sized fragments into submeter-sized particles because of the high mechanical strength of water
