Scientific paper

The gasdynamic motion of Saturn under the influence of a gravity field is analyzed theoretically, and the results are compared with data from observations by Voyager I. The distortions of the gravity field are regarded as small disturbances due to the rotation of spherical gaseous stars with small oblatenes such as Saturn. It is found that a periodic change in gravity potential occurs which is concentrated on the equatorial plane. Good agreement between the theoretical analysis and Voyager I data suggest a high degree of applicability of the gasdynamic approach to the study of planets.
