内容記述 | The results of observations of the zodiacal light at 25 A resolution from two different viewing angles are reported. Airglow emission from both NO and O II were identified spectroscopically and according to altitude variation. The UV spectrometer was rocket-borne, and functioned in the wavelengths from 1700-3150 A. The solar spectrum was matched at wavelengths higher than 2600 A. Using the smaller elongation angle, an upper limit for the zodiacal light was determined to be 190 millionth erg/sq cm per sec per A/sr at 1800 A, i.e., four times the solar brightness at the same wavelength. It was found that the zodiacal light dependence on elongation was the same in the UV as in the visible. The color ratios for 2100-2400 A is discussed. |
