International audience We present observations of the hydroxyl (6?2) airglow lines from ~ 87 km altitude obtained at Davis station, Antarctica, in the austral winter of 1999. Nine nights of observations were made of the P-branch near ?840 nm with a Czerny-Turner scanning spectrometer (CTS); at the s...
