Scientific paper

A technique which involves the measurement of the illumination both from below and from above of a horizontal platform at various heights in the Venus atmosphere is considered. It is shown that this technique makes it possible to directly determine the volume absorption coefficient of the atmosphere and to completely recover the radiation field in deep layers of the atmosphere in a sufficiently wide wavelength range (0.5-1.2 micron). The vertical profile of this coefficient is determined on the basis of Pioneer-Venus data for an effective wavelength of 0.63 micron. It is shown that the particle-size stratification of the cloud layer does not coincide with its absorption stratification.
