Scientific paper

A classification of the Uranian satellites with respect to their mass is presented and a revised distance relation of the satellite system is given. The prediction of the small satellites discovered by Voyager 2 suggested by an exponential distance relation found by the method of comparison of magnitude order of successive distance ratios of the large Uranian satellites is examined. A new exponential distance relation is deduced, fitting the distances of the large satellites, groups of rings and new small satellites with a spacing ratio of 1.456. In addition, some characteristics of a hypothetical parent body are deduced from the possible range of the specific mass of the new satellites.
