Cassini observations of the ring current in Saturn’s magnetosphere
In this thesis we have employed plasma and magnetic field data from the Cassini spacecraft in order to better understand Saturn’s ring current region. Three data studies are presented along with a derivation of the general expression for the field-perpendicular current density in terms of the plasma...
