| 内容記述 | High-time-resolution photoelectric measurements of the occultation of Epsilon Gem by Mars were obtained with the 36-in. telescope at Goddard Space Flight Center. Temperature profiles as a function of number density have been determined by inverting the immersion and emersion light curves on the assumption of a pure CO2 atmosphere. For number densities between 10 to the 13th and 10 to the 15th power per cu cm, the temperature varies in a wavelike fashion about a mean value near 150 K. These temperature profiles agree well with those derived from airborne observations by Elliot et al. (1977), indicating that the atmospheric features producing the excursions in the temperature profiles extend for at least 100 km along the Martian limb. |
