Four rockets have been flown at Fort Churchill, Manitoba, to study the O 2 ( 1 Δ g ) concentration. Each rocket carried a single two-channel photometer sensitive to 1.27 μ radiation from the ( 1 Δ g → 3 Σ g − ) (0,0) transition of O 2 . Information on the diurnal variation of both the total intensit...
