We both test and offer an alternative to a meteoroid bombardment model (M. R. Showalter 1998, Science 282, 1099-1102) and suggest that anomalous localized brightenings in the F ring observed by Voyager result from disruptive collisions involving poorly consolidated moonlets, or "rubble piles."

We find that for anti-alignment the channels are wider and go deeper inside the ring material. From our numerical model we find a new feature, an island in the middle of the chan

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
