Abstract. Total quenching rate coefficients of Herzberg states molecular oxygen and three triplet nitrogen in the collisions with O2 N2 molecules are calculated on basis quantum-chemical approximations. The electronic O2* N2* show a good agreement available experimental data. An influence collisional processes vibrational populations electronically excited is studied for altitudes high-latitude lower thermosphere mesosphere during auroral electron precipitation. It indicated that metastable...
Abstract. Contributions of intermolecular electron energy transfers in the electronic quenching are calculated for molecular collisions N2(A3Σu+, W3Δu)+N2(X1Σg+, v=0), N2(A3Σu+)+N2(X1Σg+, v≥0), N2(A3Σu+)+O2(X3Σg−, v=0–2), O2(a1Δg, b1Σg+)+O2(X3Σg−, v=0–2).

In many cases, have good agreement with available...
A prototype auroral hyperspectral all-sky camera has been constructed and tested. It uses electro-optical tunable filters to image the night sky as a function of wavelength throughout visible spectrum with no moving mechanical parts. The core optical system includes new high power lens F-number equal f/1.1. tested at Kjell Henriksen Observatory (KHO) during season 2011/2012. detects all sub classes aurora above ~½ visual 1kR green intensity threshold an exposure time only one second....
Abstract. Relative vibrational populations of triplet B3Πg, W3Δ,sub>u, B'3Σu− states N2 and the b1Σg+ state O2 are calculated for different altitudes high-latitude upper atmosphere during auroral electron precipitation.
