Journal ArticleDOI
Extraterrestrial spectroscopy: Foreign-gas broadening of propane as it applies to the atmosphere of Titan
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the FTS spectrometer at the National Solar Observatory McMath telescope facility to obtain the broadening coefficients for the Propane spectra in the ν 21 band near 748 cm −1 at a temperature of 175 K.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distribution of co2 in saturn's atmosphere from cassini/cirs infrared observations
Mian M. Abbas,A. LeClair,E. Woodard,M. Young,M. Stanbro,F. M. Flasar,V. G. Kunde,Richard K. Achterberg,Gordon L. Bjoraker,John C. Brasunas,D. E. Jennings,Cirs Team +11 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focused on the CO2 distribution in Saturn's atmosphere based on analysis of infrared spectral observations of Saturn made by the Composite Infrared Spectrometer aboard the Cassini spacecraft.
Journal ArticleDOI
Residual Study: Testing Jupiter Atmosphere Models Against Juno MWR Observations
Zhimeng Zhang,Virgil Adumitroaie,Michael Allison,J. K. Arballo,Sushil K. Atreya,Gordon L. Bjoraker,Scott Bolton,Shannon Brown,Leigh N. Fletcher,Tristan Guillot,Samuel Gulkis,Amoree Hodges,Andrew P. Ingersoll,Michael Janssen,Steven Levin,Cheng Li,Liming Li,Jonathan I. Lunine,Sidharth Misra,Glenn S. Orton,Fabiano Oyafuso,Paul G. Steffes,Michael H. Wong +22 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare several published Jupiter atmospheric models against Microwave Radiometer (MWR) data, and present an extension of the study that iteratively improves the input model and generates Jupiter brightness temperature maps which best match the MWR data.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conor A. Nixon,Conor A. Nixon,Richard Achterberg,Richard Achterberg,Nicholas A Teanby,Patrick G. J. Irwin,Jean-Marie Flaud,Isabelle Kleiner,Alix Dehayem-Kamadjeu,Alix Dehayem-Kamadjeu,Linda R. Brown,Robert L. Sams,Bruno Bézard,Athena Coustenis,Todd M. Ansty,A. A. Mamoutkine,Sandrine Vinatier,Gordon L. Bjoraker,Donald E. Jennings,Paul N. Romani,F. Michael Flasar +20 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a search for several molecules in Titan's stratosphere in Cassini CIRS infrared spectra, including ammonia (NH3), methanol (CH3OH), formaldehyde (H2CO), and acetonitrile (CH 3CN), all of which are predicted by photochemical models but only observed, and not in the infrared.
Journal ArticleDOI
Jupiter's Deep Cloud Structure Revealed Using Keck Observations of Spectrally Resolved Line Shapes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors use the strength of a Fraunhofer absorption line in a zone to determine the ratio of reflected sunlight to thermal emission, and pressure-broadened line profiles of deuterated methane (CH3D) at 4.66 microns to locate the location of clouds.
