Scientific paper

Submillimeter emission spectra of the low stratosphere (24.5 km) between 30 and 110 kaysers have been used to determine line positions and strengths for many of the lines originating in magnetic dipole transitions of the homonuclear molecule O2. Observed line positions are shown to be in excellent agreement with recently derived theoretical values. Line strengths for these lines are found to be significantly higher than values calculated on the basis of recent theoretical work and, for those lines for which a comparison is possible, higher than previously obtained laboratory determinations. This general feature of the present data is vital not only for the establishment of basic molecular parameters for O2, but also for the application of recent methods for H2O and O2 stratospheric concentration determination in which O2 lines are used as an internal calibration of the balloon-borne instrumentation.
