Scientific paper

Data from radio observations of Uranus, obtained at 1-900 kHz by the Planetary Radio Astronomy experiment on Voyager 2 during its encounter with Uranus in January 1986, are compiled in extensive graphs and tables and analyzed. The types of emission observed include (1) a smooth left-hand-polarized (LHP) HF component seen on the nightside only; (2) a smooth LF component which is LHP and RHP in the northern and southern magnetic hemispheres, respectively; (3) broadband LHP bursts at 78-750 kHz seen at low southern-hemisphere latitudes; and (4) narrow-band RHP bursts at 40-270 kHz seen in the northern hemisphere. Periodic events and VLF emissions correlated with in situ phenomena are also discussed, and source regions for the different emissions are determined.
