โœฆ Synopsis


Secular perturbations of fictitious satellites that are initially circular and in the equatorial plane of Uranus are discussed. Satellites located in the region where the solar perturbation is dominant become highly eccentric and inclined with respect to the equator, and have a possibility to collide with Uranus. Satellites located in the region where the oblateness perturbation is dominant keep the original eccentricity and the inclination. A scenario of a possible extinction of outer satellites of Uranus is also discussed.

We have searched for satellites of Uranus in a \(3^{\circ} \times 3^{\circ}\) square region centered on the planet. This region is large enough to contain all satellites orbiting within the Jacobi limit \(r_{\mathrm{J}}=\left(M_{\mathrm{p}} / 3 M_{\odot}\right)^{1 / 3} a\), where \(M_{\mathrm{p}}\)
