Scientific paper

A rotationally-dependent occurrence pattern is identified for the b-bursty emissions observed with Voyager 2 during its 1986 encounter with Uranus. Certain features of this pattern, such as its extension to the highest frequencies and a 40-min signal gap, were sometimes recognizable on individual rotations despite the bursty character of the signals. This pattern is interpreted in terms of Voyager's passing from the inside of a broad, hollow emission cone coming from the southern hemisphere to the outside, and then back in, as a result of planetary rotation. The emission gap then corresponds to the times when Voyager was outside the cone.
