Abstract
The brightness variation in Saturn's ring A with orbital phase of the ring particles does not change significantly as the declination of the earth, B, decreases from about 16.5 to 11.5 deg and is noticeably more pronounced than when the rings are fully open. The present data are also not inconsistent with earlier results suggesting that the amplitude of this azimuthal effect diminishes near opposition.
