Airglow I: Four Main Airglow Emissions
2002Airglowln a dark moonless night away from city light, a certain amount of light is observed to come from space whereby big letters can be read. Excluding light from stars, zodiac, galaxies and that scattered by the atmosphere, it is observed that the remaining light, which is about 40%, is produced by self luminescence of atmosphere.

Abstract Airglow OH emissions originate from the mesopause and provide optical signatures of various physical and chemical processes occurring in this region of the upper atmosphere. Emissions from different vibrational levels of the mesopause OH (in the ground electronic state) may peak at different heights. roughly between 80 and 90 km.

Jupiter's Nightside Airglow and Aurora
Science, 2007Observations of Jupiter's nightside airglow (nightglow) and aurora obtained during the flyby of the New Horizons spacecraft show an unexpected lack of ultraviolet nightglow emissions, in contrast to the case during the Voyager flybys in 1979. The flux and average energy of precipitating electrons generally decrease with increasing local time across the

Abstract This survey of excitation processes for singlet O 2 in planetary atmospheres is intended to provide an introduction to the following papers in which laboratory investigations and field measurements are discussed in more detail. The three singlet states, a 1 Δ g , b 1 Σ g + and c 1 Σ u − , contribute to features in the airglows of ...

Ultraviolet Night Airglow of Venus
Science, 1979The night airglow spectrum of Venus in the ultraviolet is dominated by the v ′ = 0 progressions of the gamma and delta bands of nitric oxide. The bands are produced by two-body radiative recombination of nitrogen and oxygen atoms. Since the source of these atoms is in the dayside thermosphere, the night airglow is a

The altitude variation of the intensity ofλ 6300 line of OI atom and that ofλ 3914 (0–0 band of the first negative system of N2+) in the day airglow have been calculated. It has been found that photodissociation of O2 by the Schumann-Range continuum is mainly responsible for the emission ofλ 6300 line (intensity 65 KR).

A phenomenological description of the night airglow is presented, reviewing the historical background, and what is known about height, temporal and spatial variations in intensity, and movements. The very important relationship to aurora and evidence for latitude-seasonal effects are examined.

Space Science Reviews, 1970
The phenomenology of the night airglow is reviewed with particular emphasis on the work of recent years. The major topics discussed are the spectrum; latitudinal dependency; diurnal variation; correlations in time and space; the effects of magnetic activity and of the sunspot cycle and solar activity; and conjugacy and the airglow.

During the past few years, the study of airglow emissions from tropical latitudes has led to progress in several areas of aeronomic research. The understanding of radiative processes involving recombining atomic and molecular oxygen ions has progressed to the point that F‐region dynamics can be inferred from simultaneous observations of selected lines.
