Cratering and age of the small Saturnian satellites

The small (\(\le\) 135 km mean radius) saturnian satellites are closely related to the rings and together they constitute a complex dynamical system where formation and destruction mechanisms compete against each other. We model the cratering process by Centaur objects on the small saturnian satelli...
