Scientific paper

Nearly 1200 laboratory measurements of the 5-20 cm wavelength properties of ammonia have been conducted in a hydrogen/helium environment under simulated deep tropospheric jovian conditions (pressures up to 100 bars and temperatures up to 500 K) using an ultra-high-pressure measurement system built at Georgia Tech [1]. These measurements along with nearly 1800 measurements of the 0.8-20 cm wavelength properties of ammonia performed under middle tropospheric jovian conditions by Hanley et al., [2] and over 1000 measurements of the 2-4 mm wavelength properties of ammonia performed under upper tropospheric jovian conditions by Devaraj et al., [3] have been used to develop a consistent mathematical formalism to represent the opacity of ammonia in the 0.1- 30 cm wavelength range in a hydrogen/helium environment at pressures up to 100 bars and temperatures up to 500 K. The new model can be used for accurate retrievals of ammonia and other constituents in the jovian atmospheres from ground-based and spacecraftbased microwave observations.
