| الوصف: | The NOMAD instrument currently in orbit around Mars on board ESA's ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) includes UVIS, a UV-visible spectrograph covering the spectral range 200-700 nm. This instrument has two channels, one for solar occultation and a nadir channel essentially designed to analyse solar backscattered radiation. Since April 2019, the TGO spacecraft is occasionally tilted so that the nadir channel is pointed toward the Martian limb to observe the planetary airglow. A first success was the discovery of the forbidden oxygen green line at 557.7 nm that is ubiquitous in all UVIS limb dayside observations. This emission gives its characteristic colour to the terrestrial polar aurora but had was never been observed before in the airglow of other planetary atmospheres. This emission is excited by the interaction between solar radiation and CO2 and shows a mean intensity peak near 80 km. More recently, the much weaker OI 630-nm emission has been detected following co-addition of several hundreds of UVIS spectra. It is much weaker than the green line, as a consequence of collisional deactivation of the long-lived O(1D) excited state. Both oxygen dayglow emissions have been successfully modelled. Molecular transitions are also identified in the UVIS ultraviolet spectrum, including the CO Cameron bands, the CO2+ ultraviolet doublet at 298-299 nm and the Fox-Duffendack-Baker (FDB) bands. They originate from the lower thermosphere near 120 km. |
