Celestial Mechanics of Continuous Media
This monograph presents a comprehensive and detailed explanation for the planetary rings of Saturn, Uranus, Jupiter and Neptune, exploring their structures such as narrow ringlets, spiral waves and chain of vortices. The book should be of interest to astronomers, physicists and students.Physics of Planetary Rings describes striking structures of the planetary rings of Saturn, Uranus, Jupiter, and Neptune: Narrow ringlets, spiral waves, and a chain of clumps. The author has contributed essential ideas to the full understanding of planetary rings via the stability analysis of dynamical systems. The combination of a high-quality description, the set of interesting illustrations, as well as the fascinating and natural presentation will make this book of considerable interest to astronomers, physicists, and mathematicians as well as students. There is no competing text for this book so far. |
