Raman Scattering in the non-isothermal giant planet atmospheres
Abstract
The influence of non-isothermal atmosphere on the intensity of details of Raman Scattering is computed for spectra of Uranus and Neptune. It follows that the intensity of this scattering depends on the depth of the level formation in an optically homogeneous non-isothermal atmosphere; neglecting of real temperature profiles during the analysis of observation data leads to large errors in the parameters of the atmosphere upper level.
