Scientific paper

We present a study of substorm-like events at Saturn. We have surveyed all of the Cassini magnetometer data from Saturn's tail. The data reveal several instances of rapid field dipolarizations near midnight and approximately 50 RS downtail. These events are akin to those resembling jovian "substorms" in the corresponding region of the jovian tail. We suggest that these signatures represent kronian "substorms", and show examples, along with an explanation of the reconfiguration of the field topology.
