An aerosol model of the atmosphere of Venus
Abstract
The first nephelometric investigations of the aerosol component in the atmosphere of Venus were conducted by the Venera 9 and 10 spacecraft. These investigations were continued by Venera 11, and aerosol investigations were carried out almost simultaneously by the U.S. Pioneer Venus probes. The results permit discussing a model of the aerosol in the atmosphere of the planet and a comparison of the experimental data.
