Scientific paper

A new type of airglow spectrograph has been used to observe the spectrum of the night airglow. It has proved possible to resolve the 5-0, 6-1, 7-1, 8-2, 9-2 and 9-3 bands of OH into individual lines with a dispersion of 0.45 ˚A per pixel (corresponding to a resolving power of approximately 5000-10,000) and to measure their individual wavelengths to an accuracy of between 0.1 ˚A and 0.2 ˚A. The methods used for data reduction are described and comparisons with theory and previous observations are given.
