Scientific paper

As a possible experimental payload on board SPACELAB, the measurement of the solar photon flux in the wavelength range of from 160 to 220 nm is proposed. Emphasis is placed on the role of this flux rate in the formation of ozone in the stratosphere. It is noted that the concentration of stratospheric ozone is controlled by a complex chemical which can be influenced by human activity. The monitoring of ammonia photolysis combined with nitric oxide detection is suggested as an accurate means of determining photon flux at about 200 nm. It is also pointed out that previous determinations of the photon flux do not agree and hence there is a need to use SPACELAB for this purpose.
