متن کاملUsing a photochemical model for the validation of NO2 satellite measurements at different solar zenith angles
SCIAMACHY (Scanning Imaging Spectrometer for Atmospheric Chartography) aboard the recently launched Environmental Satellite (ENVISAT) of ESA is measuring solar radiance upwelling from the atmosphere and the extraterrestrial irradiance. Appropriate inversion of the ultraviolet and visible radiance measurements, observed from the atmospheric limb, yields profiles of nitrogen dioxide, NO2, in the ...
متن کاملObservations of Mkn 421 in 2004 with HESS at large zenith angles
Mkn 421 was observed during a high flux state for nine nights in April and May 2004 with the fully operational High Energy Stereoscopic System (HESS) in Namibia. The observations were carried out at zenith angles of 60◦–65◦, which result in an average energy threshold of 1.5 TeV and a collection area reaching 2 km2 at 10 TeV. Roughly 7000 photons from Mkn 421 were accumulated with an average ga...
متن کاملWave front control techniques for imaging space objects at large zenith angles
The problem of mitigating atmospheric turbulence-induced distortions from imagery measured by astronomical and space surveillance telescopes operating at high zenith angles is addressed here. Most previous research in this problem has emphasized operation at relatively small zenith angles, where turbulence effects are less severe, and effects arising from relatively weak phase distortions domin...
متن کاملDivergence of sun-rays by atmospheric refraction at large solar zenith angles
Abstract. For the determination of photolysis rates at large zenith angles it has been demonstrated that refraction by the earth’s atmosphere must be taken into account. In fact, due to the modified optical path the optical transmittance is thereby increased in most instances. Here we show that in addition the divergence of sun-rays, which is also caused by refraction but which reduces the dire...
