Resonantly-forced Eccentric Ringlets: Relationships between Surface Density, Resonance location, Eccentricity and Eccentricity-gradient
M. D. Melita, J. C. B. Papaloizou
We use a simple model of the dynamics of a narrow-eccentric ring, to put some constraints on some of the observable properties of the real systems.In this work we concentrate on th…

Structuring eccentric-narrow planetary rings
J. C. B. Papaloizou, M. D. Melita
(Abridged) A simple and general description of the dynamics of a narrow eccentric ring is presented.We view an eccentric ring which precesses uniformly at a slow rate as exhibiting…
