First detection of Carbon Monoxide in the Atmosphere of Uranus

Abstract

Carbon monoxide has been detected for the first time in the atmosphere of Uranus, from infrared spectroscopy using ISAAC at the VLT. This result provides new constraints on the planet's interior, and illustrates significant differences between the two 'icy giants' Uranus and Neptune.
