Earth Atmosphere: Airglow
Scientific paper
The MULTIFOT airglow photometer payload was launched from Alcântara (2.5°S, 44.4°W) on a SONDA III rocket at 23:52 hrs local time on 31 May 1992. A total of ten photometers, six forward-looking and four side-looking, measured the height profiles of the airglow emissions O2 Herzberg band system, O I 557.7 nm, Na D 589.3 nm, O I 630.0 nm, OH (8,3) band R branch at 724.0 nm, O2 atmospheric (0,0) band at 762.0 nm and the sky background at 578 nm and 710 nm. At the time of launch, a ground-based airglow photometer observed the intensity variations of these emissions, together with the rotational temperature of the OH (9,4) band, and a sodium lidar measured the atomic sodium concentration from 80 to 110 km.
