Hydrodynamics of Saturn’s Dense Rings

M. Seiß, F. Spahn (2011)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

The space missions Voyager and Cassini together with earthbound observations revealed a wealth of structures in Saturn’s rings. There are, for example, waves being excited at ring positions which are in orbital resonance with Saturn’s moons. Other structures can be assigned to embedded moons like empty gaps, moon induced wakes or S-shaped propeller features. Furthermore, irregular radial structures are observed in the range from 10 meters until kilometers. Here some of these structures will be discussed...

On the determination of the potential function from given orbits

L. Alboul, J. Mencía, R. Ramírez, N. Sadovskaia (2008)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

The paper deals with the problem of finding the field of force that generates a given ( N - 1 )-parametric family of orbits for a mechanical system with N degrees of freedom. This problem is usually referred to as the inverse problem of dynamics. We study this problem in relation to the problems of celestial mechanics. We state and solve a generalization of the Dainelli and Joukovski problem and propose a new approach to solve the inverse Suslov’s problem. We apply the obtained results to generalize the...

On the Singularities of the Newtonian two dimensional N-body Problem

Carlo Marchioro, Mario Pulvirenti (1983)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Si considera un sistema bidimensionale di N particelle interagenti tramite un potenziale di Newton o di Coulomb e si mostra che l’insieme delle condizioni iniziali che in un tempo finito possono condurre a delle singolarità possiede misura di Lebesgue nulla.
