Abstract
A spherical Fabry-Perot interferometer on Ogo 6 (launched June 5, 1969) gives the profile of the 6300-A oxygen line in the dayglow at different altitudes between 200 and 320 km. The temperature of the neutral components of the atmosphere is deduced from these measurements with an accuracy of ±65°K. The results presented in this paper correspond to the storm period September 25 to October 5, 1969. During this period a severe geomagnetic storm occurred. The temperature measurements show a very strong effect in the two polar regions, while the equatorial regions present a smooth temperature variation.
