The radial density profile of Saturn's A ring
Fabio M. Grätz, Michael Seiler, Martin Seiß +2
In this work, we model the radial density profile of the outer A ring of Saturn observed with Cassini cameras (Tiscareno & Harris 2018): An axisymmetric diffusion model has been de…
Analyzing Bleriot's propeller gaps in Cassini NAC images
Holger Hoffmann, Michael Seiler, Martin Seiß +1
Among the great discoveries of the Cassini mission are the propeller-shaped structures created by small moonlets embedded in Saturn's dense rings. We analyze images of the sunlit s…
Hydrodynamic Simulations of Asymmetric Propeller Structures in Saturn's Rings
M. Seiler, M. Seiß, H. Hoffmann +1
The observation of the non-Keplerian behavior of propeller structures in Saturn's outer A ring (Tiscareno et al. 2010, Seiler et al. 2017, Spahn et al. 2018) raises the question, h…
A Librational Model for the Propeller Blériot in the Saturnian Ring System
M. Seiler, M. Seiß, H. Hoffmann +1
The reconstruction of the orbital evolution of the propeller structure Blériot orbiting in Saturn's A ring from recurrent observations in Cassini ISS images yielded a considerable…
Hydrodynamic simulations of moonlet induced propellers in Saturn's rings: Application to Bleriot
Martin Seiß, Nicole Albers, Miodrag Sremcevic +5
One of the biggest successes of the Cassini mission is the detection of small moons (moonlets) embedded in Saturn's rings which cause S-shaped density structures in their close vic…
Vertical structures induced by embedded moonlets in Saturn's rings: the gap region
Holger Hoffmann, Frank Spahn, Martin Seiß
We study the vertical extent of propeller structures in Saturn's rings. Our focus lies on the gap region of the propeller and on non-inclined propeller moonlets. In order to descri…
