Characterizing dynamical processes in surface-bound exospheres via resolved sodium D emissions
Two techniques to quantify the energy of an atmospheric gas remotely are the emission scale height and linewidth spectroscopy at high spectral resolution. In the latter, temperature, or effective temperature in the case of a collisionless exosphere, may be retrieved analytically for a single-compone...
