The Rings of Saturn [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 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

Mapping out Patience: Cartography, Cinema and W.G. Sebald

open access: yesHumanities, 2015
Cinematic cartography can be an especially powerful tool for deep mapping, as it can convey the narratives, emotions, memories and histories, as well as the locations and geography that are associated with a place. This is evident in the documentary film

Plaire, instruire et émouvoir : le rôle du lecteur dans la définition de la visée de l’œuvre d’art

open access: yesSignata, 2019
This paper deals with the kinds of works of art — in this case Rembrandt’s famous “Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Nicolaes Tulp” — that link the esthetic function to the documentary function.

Plasma electrons above Saturn's main rings: CAPS observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 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

Edges of Saturn’s rings are fractal [PDF]

open access: yesSpringerPlus, 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 ...

New Arabic Records From Cairo on Supernovae 1181 and 1006

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The remnant of the historical supernova SN 1181 is under discussion: While the previously suggested G130.7+3.1 (3C58) appears too old (3000–5000 year), the unusual star IRAS00500+6713 with a surrounding nebula (Pa‐30) has an expansion age not inconsistent with a SN Iax explosion in ad 1181 under the assumption that neither acceleration nor ...

Saturn's Dusky Ring [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1879
I WRITE to call the attention of observers to the present appearance of the inner dusky ring of Saturn. Although the ring is not very open, only permitting that portion near the ends to be seen on the nights of the 9th and 11th of this month, using a portion of a large reflector sufficient only to show Enceladus clearly, it was most prominent, and not ...

What Confines the Rings of Saturn? [PDF]

open access: yesThe 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.

From Anti‐Van't Hoff Le Bel Molecules of C6NH to Astronomically Relevant and Experimentally Known and Unknown Carbenes

open access: yesChemPhysChem, EarlyView.
Molecules with a planar tetracoordinate carbon atom serve as reactive intermediates for carbenes. While isomer 2 has been identified in the laboratory, isomer 5 remains elusive to date. Here, four stationary points with a planar tetracoordinate carbon (ptC) atom that are considered as anti‐van't Hoff Le Bel molecules have been computationally ...
