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 ...

Corotation-driven magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling currents in Saturn’s magnetosphere and their relation to the auroras [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2003
We calculate the latitude profile of the equatorward-directed ionospheric Pedersen currents that are driven in Saturn’s ionosphere by partial corotation of the magnetospheric plasma.

Rotation Reduces Convective Mixing in Jupiter and Other Gas Giants

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Recent measurements of Jupiter’s gravitational moments by the Juno spacecraft and seismology of Saturn’s rings suggest that the primordial composition gradients in the deep interior of these planets have persisted since their formation.

Plasma electrons above Saturn's main rings: CAPS observations

, 2005
We present observations of thermal ( similar to 0.6 - 100eV) electrons observed near Saturn's main rings during Cassini's Saturn Orbit Insertion (SOI) on 1 July 2004. We find that the intensity of electrons is broadly anticorrelated with the ring optical

Remnant for all black objects due to gravity's rainbow

Nuclear Physics B, 2015
We argue that a remnant is formed for all black objects in gravity's rainbow. This will be based on the observation that a remnant depends critically on the structure of the rainbow functions, and this dependence is a model independent phenomena. We thus

An Evolving View Of Saturn\u27S Dynamic Rings

, 2010
We review our understanding of Saturn\u27s rings after nearly 6 years of observations by the Cassini spacecraft. Saturn\u27s rings are composed mostly of water ice but also contain an undetermined reddish contaminant.

Discovery of a transient radiation belt at Saturn

, 2008
Radiation belts have been detected in situ at five planets. Only at Earth however has any variability in their intensity been heretofore observed, in indirect response to solar eruptions and high altitude nuclear explosions. The Cassini spacecraft's MIMI/

Formation of Saturn's ring spokes by lightning-induced electron beams

, 2006
Spokes are near-linear markings sometimes visible on Saturn's rings. They are widely accepted as being electrostatically-levitated sheets of similar to 0.6 micron-radius charged grains.

A survey of low-velocity collisional features in Saturn's F ring [PDF]

, 2014
Small (~50km scale), irregular features seen in Cassini images to be emanating from Saturn's F ring have been termed mini-jets by Attree et al. (2012). One particular mini-jet was tracked over half an orbital period, revealing its evolution with time and

Investigating Tidal Stripping of a Preexisting Moon as the Origin of Saturn’s Young Icy Rings

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The origin of Saturn’s rings has been debated for decades. Measurements from Voyager and Cassini have suggested that the rings could be as young as ∼100 Myr and composed of nearly pure ice. Several scenarios have been proposed to explain these properties.
