PLANETARY RINGS

"Planetary Rings provides a summary and personal view of the present understanding of planetary rings, including results from the Cassini space mission to Saturn. It covers all aspects of planetary rings with particular emphasis on ring history and evolution. Basic physical processes and simple mathematical approaches are presented in a clear and accessible way, supported by many images and diagrams that display the spectacular phenomena seen in planetary rings. Highlighted topics include Saturn's F ring, Neptune's rings, Jupiter's rings, stochastic models, ring age and evolution, and Cassini results."--BOOK JACKET.
