TL;DR: The Cassini magnetometer has detected the interaction of the magnetospheric plasma of Saturn with an atmospheric plume at the icy moon Enceladus, consistent with local outgassing activity via a plume from the surface of the moon near its south pole.

TL;DR: The current sheet within the magnetosphere is thinner and more extended, and the external magnetic field is different compared with past spacecraft observations, and small diamagnetic cavities and ion cyclotron waves of types that were not reported before are observed.

TL;DR: The Grand Finale phase of the Cassini mission took the spacecraft through the gap between Saturn's atmosphere and the inner edge of its innermost ring 22 times, ending with a final plunge into the atmosphere on 15 September 2017, and offered an opportunity to investigate Saturn’s internal magnetic field and the electromagnetic environment between the planet and its rings.

TL;DR: In the absence of a determination of the rotation rate, the model is constrained to be axisymmetric as mentioned in this paper, and the largest value of the dipole tilt obtained from non-axisymetric models (<0.1°) confirm the high degree of symmetry of the magnetic field.

TL;DR: In this article, the Ulysses spacecraft from the south polar regions of the heliosphere to the north polar regions has been used to obtain a unique perspective on the configuration and properties of heliospheric magnetic field at a time of solar minimum activity.
