Three Dynamical Evolution Regimes for Coupled Ring-satellite Systems and Implications for the Formation of the Uranian Satellite Miranda
In coupled ring-satellite systems, satellites exchange angular momentum with both the primary through tides and the ring through Lindblad torques, and may exchange material with the ring through accretion and tidal disruption. Here we show that these coupled ring-satellite systems fall into three di...
