Physics

Scientific paper

We present the theory and a numerical model to describe the resonant emission lines in the planetary upper atmospheres for any velocity function distributions. The algorithm of the numerical model is based on a Monte Carlo approach. The model is applied to describe the emission lines of the sodium D2 lines in the exosphere of Mercury. The very general approach of this tool makes it efficient to study the impact of non-maxwellian effects in emission lines of planetary upper atmospheres / exospheres.
