Scientific paper

Observations of planetary upper atmospheres through stellar occultations are of interest because they provide information about the radiative and dynamical processes at work in these rarefied regions (number density range: 10super13 - 10super15 cmsuper-3), which could be otherwise measured only through direct atmospheric probe launched from a spacecraft. One of the problems with interpretation of the temperature profiles obtained from ground-based occultation observations has been that the numerical inversion of the data is highly sensitive to photometric errors--especially in obtaining the mean temperature of the atmosphere. This photometry will allow us to analyze data from the occultation of U111 by Uranus on 14 April 1993.
