- Abstract
The article offers information on the studies regarding the ring systems of Saturn and Jupiter. It mentions the study by Matt Hedman and colleagues wherein they interpreted that the vertical waves observed by Cassini spacecraft in the C ring of Saturn is a perturbation caused by an impact. It states that the study of Hedman and Mark Showalter that the same perturbation which was observed in the main ring of Jupiter was caused by the collision of comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 with the planet.
