This paper presents a plasma density model for the Uranus nightside at r less than 4.2 r(u), developed on the basis of radio wave observations of the Planetary Radio Astronomy instrument on board the Voyager 2 spacecraft and on cyclotron maser instability. The results provide an accurate description of the Uranus kilometric radiation (UKR) source region dependent on a minimum of assumptions, and indicate that the UKR source region is more extended in longitude than previosly determined.
