Abstract

The present publication discusses Uranus and its interior, atmosphere, rings, satellites, and magnetosphere. Attention is given to photochemistry and vertical mixing, spectroscopy and chemistry of the Uranian atmosphere, the thermal structure and energy balance of Uranian atmospheric dynamics and circulations, and clouds and aerosols in the Uranian atmosphere. Topics considered include particle properties and processes in Uranus' rings, the origin and properties of the Uranian satellites, the geology and cratering of the Uranian satellites, and the planet's magnetic field and magnetospheric configuration. Also addressed are wave-particle interactions in the Uranian magnetosphere, the magnetic field and magnetospheric configuration of Uranus, the plasma environment of Uranus, and Uranus as a radio source.
