Pure-rotational and rotational-vibrational Raman spectrum of the atmosphere at an altitude of 23 km

Ground-based optical astronomical observations supported by or in the vicinity of laser guide-star systems can be contaminated by Raman-scattered laser photons. Anticipating, alleviating, and correcting for the impact of this self-inflicted contamination requires a detailed knowledge of the pure-rot...
