Scientific paper

In Spring 1990 and 1991 and in Summer 1990 the SISSI program (Spectroscopic Infrared Structure Signatures Investigation) was carried out over Esrange, Kiruna (Sweden). Four Skylark payloads were successfully launched. The main experiment of each payload was a liquid helium cooled infrared spectrometer which measured the thermal infrared emission from the Arctic mesosphere and lower thermosphere. The recorded spectra will be used to determine trace gas densities in the mesosphere and to study excitation processes in the mesopause region and above.
