• An update to a Saturnian longitude system based on kilometric radio emissions (2008, background): “However, Ulysses and Cassini observations have shown that this modulation period varies by the order of one percent on timescales of a few years [Lecacheux et al., 1997; Galopeau and Lecacheux, 2000; Gurnett et al., 2005], hence, does not represent the internal rotation period of the planet.”
• Saturnian magnetospheric dynamics: Elucidation of a camshaft model (2007, methodology): “The SKR period varies with time [Lecacheux et al., 1997; Galopeau and Lecacheux, 2000 ]; markers are separated by the period computed from the formula given by Kurth et al. [2007].”
• Discovery of a north‐south asymmetry in Saturn's radio rotation period (2009, background): “spacecraft revealed the presence of small, approximately one percent, long-term variations in the period [Galopeau and Lecacheux, 2000].”
• A Saturnian longitude system based on a variable kilometric radiation period (2006, background): “ Galopeau and Lecacheux [2000] suggested an explanation which relies on a magnetic connection between the SKR source and the magnetopause at a point where a Kelvin-Helmholtz instability is initiated.”
• The Cassini Radio and Plasma Wave Investigation (2004, background): “Also, there is evidence of long-term variations in the SKR period that may ultimately limit the accuracy with which the rotational period of Saturn can be determined (Lecacheux et al., 1997; Galopeau and Lecacheux, 2000; Zarka and Cecconi, 2002).”
