   Abstract : This thesis presents a study of the inner plasma disk of Saturn. The results are derived from measurements by the instruments on board the Cassini spacecraft, mainly the Cassini Langmuir probe (LP), which has been in orbit around Saturn since 2004. READ MORE

4. 2. On the structure and dynamics of Saturn's inner plasma disk

   Author : Mika Holmberg; Jan-Erik Wahlund; Jean-Pierre Lebreton; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : Saturn; E-ring; plasma disk; Space and Plasma Physics; Rymd- och plasmafysik;

   Abstract : This licentiate thesis presents our investigation of Saturn's inner plasma disk. The thesis gives an overview of the Cassini-Huygens project, what a plasma is and how we use the Langmuir probe to investigate it, various difficulties related to the measurements, the structure of the magnetosphere of Saturn, with special focus on the inner magnetosphere and the region around the Saturnian moon Enceladus.
