TL;DR: During Cassini's close flyby of Enceladus on 14 July 2005, the High Rate Detector of the Cosmic Dust Analyzer registered micron-sized dust particles enveloping this satellite; this asymmetric signature is consistent with a locally enhanced dust production in the south polar region of Encesladus.
Journal ArticleDOI
A belt of moonlets in Saturn’s A ring
TL;DR: Embedded moonlets found in Saturn’s A ring are probably the remnants of a shattered ring-moon of Pan size or larger, locally contributing new material to the older ring, which supports the theory of catastrophic ring creation in a collisional cascade.
Journal ArticleDOI
E ring dust sources: Implications from Cassini's dust measurements
Frank Spahn,Nicole Albers,Marcel Hörning,Sascha Kempf,Alexander V. Krivov,Martin Makuch,Jürgen Schmidt,Martin Seiß,M. Sremcevic +8 more
TL;DR: Spahn et al. as mentioned in this paper used the Enceladus flyby E11 data to identify the amount of dust produced in the impactor-ejecta process and to improve related modeling.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Cassini spacecraft's in situ observations reveal that energetic electrons are depleted in the moon's vicinity, implying that Rhea's magnetospheric interaction region, rather than being exclusively induced by sputtered gas and its products, likely contains solid material that can absorb magnetosphere particles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structures induced by small moonlets in Saturn's rings: Implications for the Cassini Mission
TL;DR: In this paper, the existence of a moonlet population may point to a catastrophic disruption of a parent body as a formation scenario for rings, which can be used for remotely probing transport properties of the rings.
