Saturn's rings consist of a huge number of water ice particles, with a tiny addition of rocky
material. They form a flat disk, as the result of an interplay of angular momentum …

Brownian motion is ergodic in the Boltzmann–Khinchin sense that long time averages of
physical observables such as the mean squared displacement provide the same information …

For dust aggregates in protoplanetary disks, a transition between sticking and bouncing in
individual collisions at mm to cm sizes has been observed in the past. This leads to the …

One could become an expert on Saturn's iconic rings pretty easily in the early 1970s, as very
little was known about them beyond the distinction between the A, B, and C rings, and the …

The distribution of particle sizes in Saturn's rings roughly follows a truncated inverse power-
law. Though it is well known that differential optical depths provide a way to probe the …

Spokes in Saturn's rings are radially-extended structures consisting of dust grains. Although
spacecraft and space telescope observations have revealed various detailed features of the …

Stellar occultations observed by the Cassini Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph reveal the
presence of transparent holes a few meters to a few tens of meters in radial extent in …

In this paper, we propose an efficient and fast numerical method of finding a stationary
solution of large systems of aggregation–fragmentation equations of Smoluchowski type for …

Radio occultations of Saturn's main rings by spacecraft suggest a power law particle size-
distribution down to sizes of the order of 1 cm (Marouf, EA, Tyler, GL, Zebker, HA, Simpson …

The satellite Mimas launches a bending wave–a warping of the rings that propagates
radially through self-gravity–at the 5: 3 inner vertical resonance with Saturn's rings. We …
