Scientific paper

The paper analyzes the ground-based telephotometer measurements of the time-dependent emission profile of the O(1S-to-1D) transition at 5577 A and the N2(+) first negative band emission at 3914 A induced in the night atmosphere by a pulsed rocket-borne electron accelerator. The measurements of the time-dependent photon emission rates are interpreted in terms of specific production mechanisms, reaction rates, and photon yields. Reaction rates for the collisional deactivation of O(1S) by O2 and O are also inferred from the ground-based telephotometer measurements. The atmospheric excitation conditions of the present artificial auroral experiment Precede differ in dosing magnitude and duration from a natural aurora.
