Scientific paper
The reported study of the relationship between auroral UV emissions and the associated electron spectra has been motivated by a desire to utilize satellite optical emission observations to infer the particle spectra which produce them. The present investigation is concerned with the dependence of selected features in the short wavelength region of the O2 Schumann-Runge absorption continuum on the incident electron spectrum. Attention is given to electron transport based on a particle-particle description, excitation and ionization associated with this transport, pure absorption, and the chemistry which relates excitation and ionization rates to the electron and ion densities. Other mechanisms identified are related to photon scattering and plasma turbulence.
