An explanation of the dynamical mechanism for apse alignment of the eccentric uranian rings is necessary before observations can be used to determine properties such as ring masses, particle sizes, and elasticities. The leading model (P. Goldreich and S. Tremaine 1979, Astron J. 84, 1638-1641) relie
The first near-infrared (0.9 m) photometric observations of Saturn's five medium-sized satellites were obtained during the In this paper we report on the analysis of nearly 300 August 1995 ring plane crossing with Palomar Observatory's images obtained in the near infrared during the RPX of 60-in. te
