The source location of the smooth high-frequency (SHF) radio emissions from Uranus has been determined using a technique differing from those applied previously. Specifically, by fitting the signal dropouts which occurred as Voyager transversed the hollow center of the emission pattern to a symmetrical cone centered on the source magnetic field direction at the cyclotron frequency, a southern-hemisphere (nightside) source was found at approximately 56¿ S, 219¿ W. The half-angle for the hollow portion of the emission pattern was found to be 13¿. ¿ American Geophysical Union 1989 |
