Airglow Derived Measurements of Q-Branch Transition Probabilities for Several Hydroxyl Meinel Bands

Spectroscopic measurements of the hydroxyl (OH) airglow emissions are often used to infer neutral temperatures near the mesopause. Correct Einstein coefficients for the various transitions in the OH airglow are needed to calculate accurate temperatures. However, studies showed experimentally and the...
