Kronoseismology VI: Reading the recent history of Saturn's gravity field in its rings

M. M. Hedman, P. D. Nicholson, M. El Moutamid +1

Saturn's C ring contains multiple structures that appear to be density waves driven by time-variable anomalies in the planet's gravitational field. Semi-empirical extensions of den…

Ring dynamics around non-axisymmetric bodies with application to Chariklo and Haumea

B. Sicardy, R. Leiva, S. Renner +4

Dense and narrow rings have been discovered recently around the small Centaur object Chariklo and the dwarf planet Haumea, while being suspected around the Centaur Chiron. They are…
