Title: Measurements of the H2 4-0 quadrupole bands of Uranus and Neptune
Abstract: We find 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 our results based on a range of atmospheric models yields H2 abundances of 240 ± 60 km-amagats for Uranus and ≳200 km amagats for Neptune.
