The Uranus System from Occultation Observations (1977-2006): Rings, Pole Direction, Gravity Field, and Masses of Cressida, Cordelia, and Ophelia

Richard G. French, Matthew M. Hedman, Philip D. Nicholson +2

From 31 Earth-based and three Voyager 2 occultations spanning 1977--2006, we determine the orbital elements of the nine main Uranian rings with typical RMS residuals of 0.2 -- 0.4…

A Formally and Algorithmically Efficient LULC change Model-Building Environment

François-Rémi Mazy, Pierre-Yves Longaretti

The use of spatially explicit land use and land cover (LULC) change models is widespread in environmental sciences and of interest in public decision-help. However, it appears that…

What confines the rings of Saturn?

Radwan Tajeddine, Philip D. Nicholson, Pierre-Yves Longaretti +2

The viscous spreading of planetary rings is believed to be counteracted by satellite torques, either through an individual resonance or through overlapping resonances. For the A ri…

Planetary Ring Dynamics -- The Streamline Formalism -- 2. Theory of Narrow Rings and Sharp Edges

Pierre-Yves Longaretti

The present material covers the features of large scale ring dynamics in perturbed flows that were not addressed in part 1 (astro-ph/1606.00759); this includes an extensive coverag…

Planetary Ring Dynamics -- The Streamline Formalism -- 1. From Boltzmann Equation to Celestial Mechanics

Pierre-Yves Longaretti

These 1992 lectures notes present a powerful formalism mostly developed in the 1980s by Borderies, Goldreich and Tremaine to address planetary ring dynamical issues. These notes ma…

Angular momentum transport and large eddy simulations in magnetorotational turbulence: the small Pm limit

H. Meheut, S. Fromang, G. Lesur +2

Angular momentum transport in accretion discs is often believed to be due to magnetohydrodynamic turbulence mediated by the magnetorotational instability. Despite an abundant liter…
