Abstract

The results of the “Terminator” space experiment on board the International Space Station are presented. Images of Earth’s atmosphere are obtained in the near IR spectral range with the limb geometry of observations under a full moon. The calculated vertical profiles of volume emission/scattering rate point that the aerosol layer occurs within the height region of 80–100 km in Earth’s atmosphere. It is proposed that this layer is meteoric in origin. Estimates show that the size spectrum of aerosol particles lies within the 1–100 nm range.

热大气层下部的气溶胶层：II.满月期间的观测

摘要介绍了在国际空间站上进行的 "终结者 "空间实验的结果。在近红外光谱范围内获得了地球大气层的图像，采用了满月下观测的边缘几何形状。计算得出的体积发射/散射率垂直剖面图表明，气溶胶层出现在地球大气 80-100 公里的高度区域内。据推测，气溶胶层起源于流星。估计结果表明，气溶胶粒子的尺寸谱在 1-100 纳米范围内。

期刊介绍： Geomagnetism and Aeronomy is a bimonthly periodical that covers the fields of interplanetary space; geoeffective solar events; the magnetosphere; the ionosphere; the upper and middle atmosphere; the action of solar variability and activity on atmospheric parameters and climate; the main magnetic field and its secular variations, excursion, and inversion; and other related topics.
