Structure of the Venus neutral atmosphere as observed by the Radio Science experiment VeRa on Venus Express
TL;DR: The European Space Agency Venus Express Radio Science experiment (VeRa) as mentioned in this paper obtained 118 radio occultation measurements of the Venusian atmosphere between July 2006 and June 2007, which are converted to profiles of temperature (T) and pressure (p) versus height (h).

TL;DR: The planetary fourier spectrometer (PFS) as discussed by the authors was used for atmospheric studies on the mission of the Venus Express, which has a short wavelength (SW) channel that covers the spectral range from 1700 to 11400 cm−1 (0.9−5.5μm) and a long wavelength (LW) channel with a uniform spectral resolution of 1.3−3.3μm.
