Abstract: | Laboratory measurements of the Å (3s' 3D° → 2p41D, 3s' 3D° → 2p43P) branching ratio have been made with a value of 1.5 × 10t-4 indicated. This value makes the branching transition at 1173 Å an order of magnitude stronger than the branch at 7990 Å (3s' 3D° → 3p 3P). The 1173 Å branching loss is still too weak a loss process for multiply scattered 989 Å photons to resolve the 989 Å intensity problem in the dayglow. |
