Scientific paper

Voyager 1 observations of Saturn's kilometric radio emissions reveal a
strong but apparently transitory control by the orbital phase angle of
Dione. This may be a geometrical effect and a time-variable plasma torus
associated with Dione could explain most of the observed details of the
Dione modulation by creating a shadow zone near the equatorial plane.
