Scientific paper

Here in this research we develop a very simple model to fit the edges of the Azimuthal Channels observed in Saturn's F ring. This model has been used first to fit the Saturn Orbital Insertion configuration and then for the antialignment configuration. Then, since we noticed that width of the channels depend strongly in the mass of Prometheus used, the relationship between Prometheus mass and the width of the channels is found. To do so, the different masses of Prometheus that have been published are used here. The possible applications of this research such as an independent method for determining Prometheus’ mass and F ring's core strand mass are discussed.
