Abstract:
The theory of deterministic chaos is used to study the three rings A, B, and C of Saturn and the French and Cassini divisions in between them. The data set comprises Voyager photopolarimeter measurements. The existence of spatially distributed strange attractors is shown, implying that the system is open, dissipative, nonequilibrium, and non-Markovian in character.
