| 内容記述 | Observational data obtained from the Visible Airglow Experiment (VAE) on the Atmospheric Explorer D satellite is used to deduce the production efficiency of the excited 2P state of the O(+) ion in the electron impact ionization of O under auroral conditions. Measurements of the airglow intensity in the O(+)(2P-2D) transition band 7320-7330 A by the upward looking VAE photometer were compared with the intensity predicted on the basis of electron spectra measured at heights from 211 to 235 km within the emission. A production efficiency of 18% is obtained, which is close to theoretical predictions and supports the theoretical value of 40% for the production of the 2D state. |
