ROTATIONAL TEMPERATURES OF THE AURORAL 3914 ANGSTROM NITROGEN BAND VS. HEIGHT AT CHURCHILL, MANITOBA

Rotational temperatures derived from spectrometric scans of the 3914 Angstrom N2(+) band in the aurora have been made over a height range from 93 to 160 km. Simultaneous measurements of heights of lower borders were made using parallactic photography. The temperature range of approximately 190 to 57...

Simultaneous measurements of heights of lower borders were made using parallactic photography. The temperature range of approximately 190 to 570 K agrees well with Hunten's profile and tends to confirm the gradient between 110 and 160 km at 5.2 degree/km.
