Magnetism of Saturn in the origin of the visible dense rings and in their peculiarities recorded by the Cassini probe

Abstract Saturn’s magnetism and diamagnetism of ice can help explain the emergence of visible dense rings by transformation of the protoplanetary cloud containing ice bodies into a disk-shaped system of stable visible dense rings with extreme flatness at Saturn’s equator. It can also explain the thin structure of the rings as a whole, the sharp edges of dense rings, the existence and specific features of B -rings, and the stability of the entire dense ring system around Saturn. Additionally, it allows calculation of equilibrium separation of ice bodies, as predicted by J.C. Maxwell, with the magnetic repulsion of the ice bodies compensating for their gravitational attraction.
