Scientific paper

A spectrum of Jupiter has been recorded between 1100 and 1200 cm-1 with 2 cm-1 resolution. By comparison with synthetic spectra, we derive upper limits for C/H (1.0 10-3) and D/H (4 10-5) on Jupiter. The P/H ratio is found to be depleted by a factor 5 relatively to the solar value. A continuous absorption is required to flt the data in the continuum; this absorption could be due to an NH3 ice cloud around 150 K.
