The "ring of fire" seen by satellite cameras around the polar caps (picture below) is probably created by electrons leaking from the tail's plasma sheet, whose magnetic field lines form a somewhat imperfect trap. ... One possible explanation involves the close association between auroral arcs and electric currents which flow along field lines between the ionosphere and distant space ( Birkeland currents ). ... That produces an extra resistance to the flow of current. ...

In 2007-2008, the planet Uranus will reach one of its annual equinoxes for the first time since 1966. As a consequence, its five major satellites orbiting in the equatorial plane will undergo a season of mutual eclipses and occultations very similar to the one that Jupiter's Galilean satellites undergo every 6 years. ... Some of these events occur when Uranus is at conjunction, or the satellite is transiting or too close to the limb of the planet. ... Complete table of events . ...

For non-spherical isotropic particles, the classic variant of the RDG approximation does not include the anisotropy of the shape and hence does not give the correct Rayleigh limit, say, for small ellipsoids. ... We call this variant a modified RDG approximation (MRDG). ... First, the MRDG leads to the correct Rayleigh limit. ... The second approach to generalization of the RDG is connected with the use of the Born iterations for the scattering integral equation [ 95 , 124 , 132 , 264 ]. ...
