Scientific paper

After blind-pointing to the center of Jupiter, GHRS G160M spectra from 140 to 159 nm plus a single G200M setting at 178 nm, will be obtained. Since the sub-Earth latitude is approximately -2.8 degrees during the probable execution period (June 2, 1993), the observed region will be nearly zonally uniform, free from recent (early March) activity in the South Equatorial Belt and from stratospheric plumes to the north. The planet will rotate under the HST aperture as the spectra are acquired. The resultant spectrum will represent the zonal average spectrum at that latitude, at nearly unit local air mass. The spectrum will be analyzed for compositional information and vertical structure, using CO and C2H2 as probes. At these wavelengths, NH3 will not be important.
