Planetary radio astronomy observations from voyager 1 near saturn.

TL;DR: The Voyager 1 planetary radio astronomy experiment detected two distinct kinds of radio emissions from Saturn, one of which is strongly polarized, bursty, tightly correlated with Saturn's rotation, and exhibits complex dynamic spectral features somewhat reminiscent of those in Jupiter's radio emission.

Planetary Radio Astronomy Observations from Voyager 2 Near Saturn

TL;DR: While crossing the ring plane at a distance of 2.88 Saturn radii, the spacecraft detected an intense noise event extending to above 1 megahertz and lasting about 150 seconds, interpreted to be a consequence of the impact, vaporization, and ionization of charged, micrometer-size G ring particles distributed over a vertical thickness of about 1500 kilometers.
