Abstract. OH(6–2) Q1/P1 and R1/P1 airglow emission intensity ratios, for rotational states up to j' = 4.5, are measured to be lower than implied by transition probabilities published by various authors including Mies, Langhoff et al. and Turnbull and Lowe. Experimentally determined relative values of j' transitions yield OH(6–2) rotational temperatures 2 K lower than Langhoff et al., 7 K lower than Mies and 13 K lower than Turnbull and Lowe.Key words: Atmospheric composition and structure (airglow and aurora; pressure, density and temperature)

Intensity Measurements

Typical results of spectroscopic data from argon and nitrogen supersonic plasmajets are presented. The purpose of this study was to determine which of these spectroscopic data give suitable information for temperature determination. Spectral-line-intensity and hydrogen-line broadening techniques were used. For the argon jet, the results from line-intensity measurements of ionized and un-ionized atoms generally give reliable information; results from hydrogen-line broadening measurements indicate temperatures from 6% to 20% less than intensity measurements. Spectrographic data are compared with enthalpy measurements. For the nitrogen plasmajet, the N2+ (0,0) band was used to determine a rotational temperature.
