Scientific paper

In order to observe the speeds and directions of upper atmospheric winds, the most precise and straightforward method is to take simultaneous photographs of the artificial luminescent clouds from several camera stations on the ground. This method, however, could not be applied to measure the wind in the daytime, because of a strong sky background for the optical observation of the artificial cloud. In order to overcome this difficulty a Zeeman photometer was developed which enable us to identify the artificial sodium cloud in the bright sky background.
