Rocket observation of atomic oxygen and night airglow: Measurement of concentration with an improved resonance fluorescence technique
An improved resonant fluorescence instrument for measuring atomic oxygen concentration was developed to avoid the Doppler effect and the aerodynamic shock effect due to the supersonic motion of a rocket. The shock effect is reduced by adopting a sharp wedge-shaped housing and by scanning of the...
