What is Tidal Disruption and Narrow Ring Formation about?

1. This paper investigates the formation of narrow planetary rings through the tidal disruption of satellites. 2. Using N-body simulations, it models the disruption of homogeneous and differentiated satellites placed within the Roche limit of a central planet. 3. For a homogeneous satellite, disruption is total and forms a narrow ring, similar to the disruption of a fluid ellipsoid. For a differentiated satellite, only the mantle disrupts within the Roche limit, producing two narrow rings on either side o
