✦ Synopsis

The basic parameters describing the angular momentum distribution within the Uranus system and of its tidal evolution have been estimated. The nine satellites orbiting under the synchronous zone of Uranus is the maximum number in the solar system and it makes the Uranus system different compared with any other in the Solar system, however the satellites in question are relatively small and their contribution of the tidal dynamics of the system is small compared with that due to UI and UV. The time for existence of the nine satellites as integrated bodies can be estimated as 1.4 x lo9 y (UVI) and more. The total tidal decrease in the Uranus angular velocity of rotation is estimated as 7 x 10-9s-'.
