A continuous water "planet" ring around a star
+0

It is impossible to have a continuous mostly liquid water ring around a star?
Probably such a configuration would be unstable under normal planetary forming condition. I am looking for a good physical reason why it could never be possible. It is related to these questions :
- Can I have a very dense asteroid belt ring around a star?
- Is it possible for a planet to have a liquid ring?

solar wind, internal friction forces, water triple point, axial-transverse displacements, roche limit.
- assemble various materials
- phase states
- internal movements
- stabilizing cycles
