Scientific paper

Broadband measurements were made of the 415-micron brightness temperature of Titan in February 1981 at the 3-m NASA IRTF using the University of Chicago submillimeter photometer. It is found that the 415-micron brightness temperature of Titan is 68 + or - 8.5 K if the observed radiation originates from a layer 2600 km in radius. This temperature lies within one standard deviation below the minimum tropopause temperature determined by Voyager.
