This SpringerBrief summarizes the latest relevant research and
discoveries that have been made in the area of ringed small bodies
and small body taxonomy, including those that lay the groundwork
for future discoveries. Before 2013, ringed small bodies were only
theoretical. Thus, there are very limited publications available on
this relatively new subfield of astronomy. With the introduction of
the GAIA catalogue, star positions are now known better than ever
before. Since rings are discovered through the use of starlight
occultation, we could very well be looking at an explosion of
discoveries of ringed small bodies in the near future. Each chapter
is accompanied by exercises, and an end-of-book answer key is
provided. As such, this brief will benefit students and researchers
alike who wish to have a single document and quick access to the
latest information on ringed small bodies and small body taxonomy.
