GALEX Observations of Diffuse UV Radiation at High Spatial Resolution from the Sandage Nebulosity

, 2008
Using the GALEX ultraviolet imagers we have observed a region of nebulosity first identified as starlight scattered by interstellar dust by Sandage (1976). Apart from airglow and zodiacal emission, we have found a diffuse UV background of between 500 and

A scene model of exosolar systems for use in planetary detection and characterisation simulations

, 2007
Instrumental projects that will improve the direct optical finding and characterisation of exoplanets have advanced sufficiently to trigger organized investigation and development of corresponding signal processing algorithms.

The Zodiacal Light [PDF]

Nature, 1912
As of possible interest to some of your readers beg to report to you a phenomenon which I have observed here during the last ten days. It may be described as follows: every evening after sunset when twilight has completely died out of the western sky there is observable an illumination, starting due west and extending upwards to a height of about 40 ...

OAO-2 observations of the zodiacal light [PDF]

Photometric measurements of the night sky brightness have been obtained at twelve wavelengths between 1000 A and 4300 A from above the earth's atmosphere. A preliminary analysis of the data reveals a component of the sky brightness with ecliptic symmetry
