Morphology of the Excited Hydroxyl in the Martian Atmosphere: A Model Study—Where to Search for Airglow on Mars?

Monitoring excited hydroxyl (OH*) airglow is broadly used for characterizing the state and dynamics of the terrestrial atmosphere. Recently, the existence of excited hydroxyl was confirmed using satellite observations in the Martian atmosphere. The location and timing of its detection on Mars were r...
