Mega-Planetary Rings
#2
Neat Smile For those interested here's the original article:

Modeling giant extrasolar ring systems in eclipse and the case of J1407b: sculpting by exomoons?
Matthew A. Kenworthy, Eric E. Mamajek
http://arxiv.org/abs/1501.05652

Interestingly they estimate the mass of the rings as 100x the mass of Earth's moon which is around 7.34e24kg, around 50% greater than Earth!
OA Wish list:
  1. DNI

  3. A dormbot, because domestic chores suck!
