The first simultaneous spectroscopic and monochromatic imaging observations of short-wavelength infrared aurora of $$\mathrm {N_{2}^{+}}$$ N 2 +  Meinel (0,0) band at 1.1 $$\mathrm {\mu }$$ μ m with incoherent scatter radar

Abstract This study presents a first simultaneous observation of $$\mathrm {N_{2}^{+}}$$ N 2 +  Meinel (0,0) band (hereafter, $$\mathrm {N_{2}^{+}}$$ N 2 +  (M)) aurora by cutting-edge short-wavelength infrared imaging spectrograph (NIRAS-2) and monochromatic camera (NIRAC) installed at the Kjell He...
