Scientific paper

High-resolution (about 1 A) dayglow observations of the O I(1304) A) and O I(989 A) multiplets were made from an Astrobee-F rocket payload (25.046 CE) launched from White Sands, New Mexico at local noon on June 27, 1980 to an apogee of 260 km. Three components of the O I(1304 A) multiplet were measured at zenith angles of approximately 50 and 140 deg at 1.1 A resolution. Over the entire altitude range of observation, i.e., 100-260 km, the three components were found to be equal to within + or - 15%. The shape of the O I(989 A) multiplet distribution observed on the flight at 1.3 A resolution was indistinguishable from an optically thin source with the energy levels of the excited state populated according to their statistical weights in spite of the large optical depths of the O I(989 A) multiplet at rocket altitudes.
