Spatiotemporal evolution of radio wave pump-induced ionospheric phenomena near the fourth electron gyroharmonic [PDF]
On 12 November 2001, the European Incoherent Scatter (EISCAT) high-frequency (HF) radio wave transmitter facility, operating in O-mode at 5.423 MHz with 550 MW effective radiated power, produced artificial optical rings which appeared immediately at ...

CalFUSE v3: A Data-Reduction Pipeline for the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer
Since its launch in 1999, the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) has made over 4600 observations of some 2500 individual targets. The data are reduced by the Principal Investigator team at the Johns Hopkins University and archived at the ...

FUSE Spectra of the Black Hole Binary LMC X-3 [PDF]
Far-ultraviolet spectra of LMC X-3 were taken covering photometric phases 0.47 to 0.74 in the 1.7-day orbital period of the black-hole binary (phase zero being superior conjunction of the X-ray source).

The past 4 years have seen the continuation of considerable activity in airglow research. Patterns of changing emphasis are becoming clear, observations are tending to become more selective, and changes in technique have led to regular observations of dayglow, line widths in the nightglow, and observations in the middle and far ultraviolet, detection ...

Space-Based Limb-Imaging Spectrometer for Atmospheric O2 Airglow Detection
This paper presents a space-based limb-imaging spectrometer (LIS) for detecting atmospheric O2 airglow; it scans the atmosphere with a vertical range of 10–100 km and has a vertical resolution of 2 km. The LIS’s detection performance needs to be examined

Variability of the Brunt–Väisälä frequency at the OH∗-airglow layer height at low and midlatitudes [PDF]
Airglow spectrometers, as they are operated within the Network for the Detection of Mesospheric Change (NDMC; https://ndmc.dlr.de, last access: 1 November 2020), for example, allow the derivation of rotational temperatures which are equivalent to the ...

The First Detections of the Extragalactic Background Light at 3000, 5500, and 8000A (II): Measurement of Foreground Zodiacal Light [PDF]
We present a measurement of the absolute surface brightness of the zodiacal light (3900-5100A) toward a fixed extragalactic target at high ecliptic latitude based on moderate resolution (~1.3A per pixel) spectrophotometry obtained with the du Pont 2.5m ...

Equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) are regions of depleted plasma within the ionosphere that form during post‐sunset hours near the magnetic equator. EPBs tend to align with local geomagnetic field lines, extend hundreds of kilometers along geomagnetic ...

Inversion of Wind and Temperature from Low SNR FPI Interferograms
The temperature and wind in the middle and upper atmosphere can be obtained by recording the Doppler shift and broadening of the airglow emission, which is reflected by the interference ring from a ground-based Fabry–Perot interferometer (FPI) system ...

Estimation of the vertical wavelength of atmospheric gravity waves from airglow imagery [PDF]
In the summer of 2010, two imagers were installed in New Mexico with the objective of making stereoscopic observations of atmospheric gravity waves (AGWs).
