Observations of the sodium emission from Jupiter, region C
Abstract
Measurements made when testing an interferometric system for imaging the sodium emission indicate that, between 3 and 7.5 arc min (9 and 23 RJ) from Jupiter, the observed emissions can probably be attributed to terrestrial airglow.
