Scientific paper

Voyager imaging data is used to study the evolution of the Uranian system, focusing on the disk-integrated properties and radii of the 10 small satellites orbiting Uranus interior to Miranda (Smith et al., 1986). Reflectances are derived for the two objects that are spatially resolved by the Voyager observations. The relative sizes of the satellites are estimated on the basis of relative apparent brightness (disk-integrated flux). The results are discussed in the context of the origin of these satellites and their relationship to the material forming the rings of Uranus.
