Saturn differs from the Earth in that there is no sharp distinction between atmosphere and the planet's body. Instead there is a slow gradual change from gaseous atmosphere to liquid. The pressure increases with depth, and the hydrogen and helium gases become liquid.

We present a new analysis of the composition of energetic charged particles in Saturn's inner magnetosphere. This analysis is motivated by a discovery made after the Voyager 1 and 2 Saturn encounters of penetrating electrons in some total ion measurement channels of the Low Energy Charged Particle detectors.
