Study for the Analysis of the Observations, and Numerical Data Representing thePlanets as Far-Infrared Calibration Sources

摘要

The existing radiative transfer and inversion programs will be modified forapplication to the atmospheres of Uranus, Neptune, and Jupiter. The programs will be employed for analysis of KAO planetary observations in order to develop far infrared photometric calibration standards. This work will be carried out on MSFC computers. The expected end product of this task is a working program for analysis of the observations, and numerical data representing the planets as far-infrared calibration sources.
