Zodiacal Light Emission in the Planck mission
Context. The Planck satellite, scheduled for launch in 2007, will produce a set of all sky maps in nine frequency bands spanning from 30 GHz to 857 GHz, with an unprecedented sensitivity and resolution. Planets, minor bodies and diffuse interplanetary dust will contribute to the (sub)mm sky emission observed by Planck, representing a source of foreground contamination to be removed before extra...
متن کاملFraunhofer diffraction of light by human enamel.
Fraunhofer diffraction patterns of human enamel samples were photographed with a helium-neon laser beam (lambda = 633 nm). The first-order diffraction angle was in reasonable agreement with a prediction based upon enamel prisms acting as a two-dimensional grating. These results support the hypothesis that enamel diffracts light because of the periodic structure of enamel prisms with interprisma...
متن کاملDynamical Zodiacal Cloud Models Constrained by High Resolution Spectroscopy of the Zodiacal Light
The simulated Doppler shifts of the solar Mg I Fraunhofer line produced by scattering on the solar light by asteroidal, cometary, and trans-Neptunian dust particles are compared with the shifts obtained by Wisconsin H-Alpha Mapper (WHAM) spectrometer. The simulated spectra are based on the results of integrations of the orbital evolution of particles under the gravitational influence of planets...
متن کاملFluctuations in Scattered Light
Fluctuations in scattered light constitute some of the most familiar natural optical phenomena, including the twinkling of starlight, the glittering of sunlight on a rippled water surface and the shimmering of distant objects on a hot day [1]. These effects are geometrical in origin being a consequence of refraction by large-scale random variations in refractive index. Fluctuations of this kind...
متن کاملZodiacal Light Surface Brightness Measurements by Atmosphere Explorer-C
Using the visible airglow photometer on the Atmosphere Explorer-C satellite, we have mapped the zodiacal light surface brightness at the wavelengths monitored by the instrument: 3371, 4278, 5200, 5577, 6300, and 7319 .~. The study constitutes a survey over this wavelength range, covering most of the celestial sphere, from altitudes above the atmospheric emissions, and free from atmospheric scat...
