Resumen:
We adapted an open source N-body code (Rebound) in order to study the effect of the oblateness of Saturn in the structures that appear in the rings. We found that additional excitation of ring particles at the edge of HorseShoe region, around a moonlet that opened a gap, can explain some features observed in Cassini images, including a remarkable increase in the vertical structures at the edge of the gap.
