  • High resolution Michelson interferometer for airborne infrared astronomical observations. I - Concept and performance
    A Michelson interferometer has been built for use with the 91-cm telescope on NASA's Gerard P. Kuiper Airborne Observatory primarily to measure IR line emission from H II regions. Operation is in the rapid scan mode, and the achievable resolution is 0.02/cm in the wavelength range from 10 to around 300 microns. A minicomputer is used to provide on

  • High resolution infrared spectra of the earth's atmosphere. III - Airborne observations in the 100-140/cm range
    The spectral emission of the lower stratosphere in the far infrared region (100-140/cm) has been measured with a high resolution (0.02/cm) Michelson interferometer from the Gerard P. Kuiper Airborne Observatory flying at 13 km altitude. The observed spectra are compared with synthetic emission spectra in order to perform the line assignment. Most

  • High resolution infrared spectra of the earth's atmosphere. II - Ground-based observations in the 500-570-kayser range
    Atmospheric emission spectra have been measured at an altitude of about 3000 m in the wavelength range from 17.5 to 20 microns. The very high spectral resolution (up to 0.02 kayser) together with the high signal-to-noise ratio achieved allow assignment of the observed lines to CO2, N2O or H2O. Existing spectroscopic molecular data have been
