Abstract:
In this article we report the most recent advances of our knowledge of non-LTE atmospheric emissions gained from the MIPAS spectra on the Envisat satellite. These include improvements in our knowledge: of the collisional processes between the CO2 (1001), (0221), and (0201) vibrational levels; of the nascent distribution and collisional relaxation of the O3 vibrational states; and of the vibrational-vibrational energy transfer rates between H2O(020) and O2. In addition we report: the first evidence of mesospheric CH4 ν 4 7.6-μm emission; much lower non-LTE populations of the NO 2 (v3 = 1 - 4) in the daytime stratosphere than previously thought; the first experimental confirmation of the non-LTE excitation of NO(1) in the daytime stratosphere; and the first detection of the CO first hot band non-LTE emission near 4.7 μm. © 2005 Académie des sciences.
