Abstract: | We report results from analysis of data from Pioneer Saturn's Imaging Photopolarimeter. These include the discovery of a new ring and satellite, the structure of the atmosphere of Saturn and Titan, the inhomogeneous nature of Saturn's rings, and a model for the rings' formation and bimodal particle size distribution. |
