Scientific paper

It is found that the equivalent widths of the lines of the 4-0 H2 quadrupole band on Uranus and Neptune are substantially smaller than the values found by some previous observers. An analysis of the results based on a range of atmospheric models yields H2 abundances of 240 + or - 60 km-amagats for Uranus and greater than approximately 200 km amagats for Neptune.
