Photometric analyses of Saturn's small moons: Aegaeon, Methone and Pallene are dark; Helene and Calypso are bright

M. M. Hedman, P. Helfenstein, R. O. Chancia +4

We examine the surface brightnesses of Saturn's smaller satellites using a photometric model that explicitly accounts for their elongated shapes and thus facilitates comparisons am…

Seasonal structures in Saturn's dusty Roche Division correspond to periodicities of the planet's magnetosphere

R. O. Chancia, M. M. Hedman, S. W. H. Cowley +2

We identify multiple periodic dusty structures in Saturn's Roche Division, a faint region spanning the km between the A and F rings. The locations and extent of these fe…

Are there moonlets near the Uranian alpha and beta rings?

R. O. Chancia, M. M. Hedman

The Voyager 2 Radio Science Subsystem occultations of the Uranian alpha and beta rings exhibit quasi-periodic optical depth variations with radial wavelengths that vary with longit…
