Rings of Uranus

open access: yesEos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1984
Using sophisticated computer enhancement techniques, two astronomers have been able to clearly “photograph” the rings of Uranus (Figure 1). The photographs show that the rings are made of particles that are perhaps the darkest found in the solar system. Creating clear images of the rings is a feat that has proved extremely difficult in the past because

Crantor, a short-lived horseshoe companion to Uranus?

open access: yes, 2013
Context. Stable co-orbital motion with Uranus is vulnerable to planetary migration but temporary co-orbitals may exist today. So far only two candidates have been suggested, both moving on horseshoe orbits: 83982 Crantor (2002 GO9) and 2000 SN331. Aims. (
