Scientific paper

Comparison of the strength of resonances arising from the known satellites of Uranus in the vicinity of the alpha and gamma rings, with the strengths of probable resonances at the beta and delta rings, suggest that the beta and delta rings might be associated with an undiscovered satellite of mass approximately 0.4 mass of Miranda. This satellite is predicted to be a 17-18 mag object moving in a near-circular orbit, of low inclination to the plane of the rings, at a distance of 105,221 km from Uranus.
