We analyze observations made in August and November 1995 during the Earth and Sun crossings of Saturn's ring plane, respectively. The August 1995 observations combine data taken with the Adonis adaptive optics system at the European Southern Observatory (ESO) and images from the Hubble Space Telesco
We present our new model for the thermal infrared emission of Saturn's rings based on a multilayer approximation. In our model, (1) the equation of classical radiative transfer is solved directly for both visible and infrared light, (2) the vertical heterogeneity of spin frequencies of ring particle
