    Evidence about hydrate and solid water in the Martian surface from the 1969 Mariner infrared spectrometer (1974)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-16
    Description: Results of laboratory simulation studies and comparative computer analyses of infrared spectral data regarding the presence, distribution, and form of condensed-phase water in the Martian surface. The data were obtained with the aid of the Mariner 6 and 7 spacecraft which were equipped with infrared spectrometers recording the infrared spectrum from 1.9 to 14.4 microns. From the analysis of these data evidence is obtained which signifies some sort of compositional and/or particle size variability of the extent and nature of hydration. Changes are noted which could be due to ice thinly covering a small fraction of the planetary surface in particularly cold spots, possibly on partially shaded slopes. At southerly latitudes, the fraction so covered seems to increase as the polar cap edge is approached. It is therefore concluded that there is strong evidence of ice formation on the planetary surface at the edge of the polar cap.

    Infrared radiometer for the Pioneer Venus orbiter. I - Instrument description (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: A ten-channel IR radiometer for the Pioneer Venus orbiter is described. The experimental techniques used and the design of the instrumentation by which they were implemented are considered. Emphasis is placed on temperature sounding, limb sounding, limb darkening, zenith scanning, cloud top temperature, spectral albedo and water vapor measurements. Instrumentation description is also given including optics, detectors, and electronics. Attention is given to data acquisition and handling, calibration, and in-flight performance.

    Two-year solid hydrogen cooler for the Cryogenic Limb Array Etalon Spectrometer (CLAES) instrument (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The Cryogenic Limb Array Etalon Spectrometer (CLAES) will be one of thirteen instruments on board the Upper Atmospheric Research Satellite (UARS) in late 1988. CLAES is to be employed for the measurement of stratospheric trace species concentrations affecting the ozone layer balance. It is an earth-limb viewing instrument which requires cryogenic cooling in order to obtain the necessary performance sensitivity. The present investigation is concerned with the solid hydrogen cryogen subsystem which provides the instrument temperature needed. Attention is given to the studies which led to the selection of solid hydrogen as cooling agent, the baseline cooler system, aspects of baseline performance sensitivity, and nominal cooler operations.

    Performance analysis for the cryogenic etalon spectrometer on the Upper Atmospheric Research Satellite (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The Upper Atmospheric Research Satellite (UARS) program has the objective of providing an 18-month to 2-year platform for observations of the upper atmosphere, giving particular attention to the stratosphere, mesosphere, and lower thermosphere. The primary aims of the mission are related to the measurement of the solar energy input between 120 and 500 km, the acquisition of global maps of the vertical and horizontal distribution of a series of critical trace and minor species, and the investigation of the dynamics of the upper atmosphere. One of several instruments designed to perform neutral species measurements on board the satellite is the Cryogenic Limb Array Etalon Spectrometer (CLAES). The CLAES experiment is concerned with measurements of concentrations of species of interest to the ozone layer balance. Attention is given to the performance requirements of the instrument and the effects of these requirements on the cryogenic design.

    Telescope-optical system performance analysis for the Cryogenic Limb Array Etalon Spectrometer (CLAES) on the Upper Atmospheric Research Satellite (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: A first-order performance analysis of the CLAES telescope-optical system is presented. The experiment involves the passive measurement of earth-limb radiance over a 10-60 km tangent altitude range, and is based on a solid Fabry-Perot spectrometer which provides spectral resolution of 0.25/cm for atmospheric emission spectroscopy over the 3.5-12 micron IR range. The optical system is required to provide a high degree of off-axis rejection and stray-light control, primarily to suppress intense emission from the earth surface. The astigmatism and other geometric aberrations are corrected by a secondary mirror which produces an excellent image of the primary one, allowing for location of a diffraction control or Lyot stop. The off-axis scattering performance of the telescope is examined in terms of the mirror scatter coefficient and point source rejection ratio. A mirror bidirectional reflectance distribution function of 0.0001 at 1 deg with a 1/theta-squared roll-off between 1 and 0.2 deg is realizable based on recent measurements. This results in an off-axis radiance term that is generally small in comparison with the system-limiting NER.
