Scientific paper

An active spectrometry experiment on the Vega 1 and 2 descent modules for measuring atmospheric absorption in the 230-400 nm range is described. The aim of the experiment was to determine the vertical distribution of atmospheric gases displaying intense absorption in the UV range. A broad absorption band with no fine structure was observed in the short-wavelength part of range considered. The wavelength dependence of the absorption and its vertical distribution indicate that the main absorbers are SO2 and elemental sulfur.
