Airborne interferometric measurement of the infrared spectrum of Jupiter from 6 to 14 μm - Encrenaz, T.; Gautier, D.; Michel, G.; Zeau, Y.; Lecacheux, J.; Vapillon, L.; Combes, M. (Elsevier)
A new spectrum of Jupiter from 700 to 1600 cm^-^1 was obtained with an interferometric experiment using the 91.5 cm telescope of the NASA Airborne Infrared Observatory. The spectral resolution is 10 cm^-^1 and the signal-to-noise ratio is 30 at 900 cm^-^1. NH"3 absorption lines are observed between 820 and 1020 cm^-^1. The 1306 cm^-^1 ν"4CH"4 band strongly appears in emission at a temperature of at least 145^o K. The Jovian brightness temperature between 1400 and 1600 cm^-^1, according to our measurement, is lower than 170^o K.
