Detection of Scattering Layers in the Upper Atmosphere (60-140 km) by Optical Radar
Abstract
THIS communication reports observations made by us of optical echoes from atmospheric constituents (presumably dust) at heights of 60-140 km. They were detected with an optical radar. The techniques utilized are a development of those already reported by us1,2.
