Popis: The diamagnetism of ice particles of the rings can explain their separation and the sharp edges of the rings. The existing gravitational theories of the origin of rings can't explain these observed facts. Taking into account the magnetic field of Saturn, all the particles of the rings acquire stability in the horizontal and vertical directions. The force of diamagnetic expulsion of inhomogeneous magnetic field inside the rings structure forms sharp edges and separates the particles.
