Scientific paper

In recognition of the need for accurate collision cross-sections suitable for modeling spectroscopic observations of the planetary systems and calibrate flight instruments, NASA-JPL has determined the laboratory emission cross-sections of H, H2, N2, SO2, etc. Resonance excitation, predissociation, and non-Franck-Condon band intensity systems are determined by configuration interaction and must be taken into account in analyses of spacecraft observations. Attention is given to the application of the cross-sectional data obtained to both electron energy loss codes and models of Voyager, IUE, Galileo, and HST observations of the solar system.
