Scientific paper

New models of the Neptune internal structure are calculated, using the value of the magnetic-field rotation period of the planet (tauH = 16 h 3 min) determined from Voyager-2 data. The old value of tau = 18 h characterizes the rotation of the planet's equatorial zone and is evidence of its significant differential rotation. The new models for Neptune are similar to those for Uranus.
