Scientific paper

We extend the microscopic approach developed for proton energy deposition in N2 to the general case of proton bombardment of a polar atmosphere composed of N2, O2 and O. We calculate the volume emission rates of various N2(+),O2,O2(+) and OI emissions that would be encountered in a typical PCA event. Our results demonstrate that the ratios of I(5577)/I(3914) and I(6300)/I(3914) are strongly dependent on the low energy cutoff for the power law spectra considered.
