The aim of this paper is to present results of temperature and density profiles of the upper atmosphere of Jupiter as deduced from observation of the occultation of β Sco on May 13, 1971.
The occultation light curve of β Sco is shown. The analysis of data is based on the Abelian integral inversion. Jovian refractivity profiles and typical temperature and density profiles are also shown.
The extent of the atmospheric zone where results are significant is discussed.
It is shown that no valid information about the thermosphere has been obtained.
