Abstract

The satellites of Uranus exhibit various crater populations that provide evidence concerning the history of the impactor flux in the Uranus system over time. Relative absences of craters suggest that resurfacing or other crater removal processes operated on three of the satellites during more recent epochs. In this review, we summarize available crater counts and their interpretations. -from Authors
