Scientific paper

The thermal evolution of Saturn's B ring with seasons has been monitored by the CIRS-CASSINI infrared spectrometer, from July 2004 to Saturn's equinox in August 2009. The derived temperatures are compared to a new model of radiative heat transfer of Saturn's B ring, assuming no vertical heat transport by particles. New constraints are given to the ring thermal inertia (20-35 J/m2/K/s1/2), the particle porosity (p=0.97) and the average ring filling factor (D=0.06).
