PLANETARY AERONOMYⅦ:THE SOLAR FLUX INCIDENT AT THE TOP OF THE ATMOSPHERES OF EARTH AND NEIGHBORING PLANETS FOR THE SPECTRAL REGION 50A TO 3000 A

摘要

The distribution and absolute intensity of the solar flux for wavelengths below 3000 A is an important aeronomic parameter for systematic studies of planetary aeronomy. A compilation of the solar flux incident at the top of the Earth's atmosphere is presented to serve as a basis for calculating similar data for other planets. For convenient reference, the flux data for Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter have been computed. The tabulated data for Earth were used to generate the entire model of the solar photon flux from 50 A to 3000 A for the top of the atmospheres of Venus and Mars.
