Name
Why the name ‘annular’?
‘Annular’ means ‘in the shape of a ring’, with which we specifically think of the rings of Saturn, containing many moons or in other words satellites, just like the satellite models interacting with the central market model.
Annular was developed as part of the DEMOSES project, funded by NWO under Grant ID: ESI.2019.004.
