Scientific paper

New 0.35-2.0 mm photometric measurements of Uranus and Neptune are presented which, in conjunction with earlier measurements, allow more accurate near-mm brightness temperatures to be obtained. Combining the two data sets, and employing Mars as the primary flux standard, an empirical fit to the Uranian temperature spectrum is derived. Estimates of the internal errors in temperatures derived from these fits are less than 2 K; the absolute calibration error associated with the Martian temperature is 5 percent.
