Scientific paper

Spitsbergen Observatory continuous spectrophotometric observations of airglow emissions are used to derive intensities and rotational temperatures for the OH(8, 3) and (6, 2) bands. The results obtained are compared with predictions of a one-dimensional oxygen-hydrogen model. Llewellyn et al.'s (1978) rate for quenching of OH-asterisk by M(N2 and O2) is required in the model, in order to match the calculated abundance of OH-asterisk in v-prime = 8 to the value derived from the observed intensities of the airglow OH(8, 3) band.
