While primarily designed for radar studies of the Venus surface, the high effective isotropic radiated power (EIRP) from the Magellan spacecraft makes it an ideal transmitter for use in radio occultation measurements of the refractivity and absorptivity of the Venus atmosphere. Such experiments have
The Voyager 2 Ultraviolet Spectrometer (UVS) stellar and solar occultation data obtained at Uranus have been analyzed to infer smooth thermospheric temperature profiles and heat source characteristics. Temperatures inferred in the upper thermosphere from these occultations are much higher \((850 \pm
