用逐线方法模拟木星的近红外光谱

Modelling the near-IR spectra of Jupiter using line-by-line methods

Lucyna Kedziora-Chudczer, Jeremy Bailey

摘要:

我们用英澳望远镜在K和H波段获得了木星的长缝红外光谱,分辨率为2260。使用线的,辐射转移模型与最新的,改进的谱线数据的甲烷和氨,我们推导出一个模型的纬向特性在大气中的这个巨大的行星。我们使用不同的云不透明度分布将我们的模型拟合到2.1 μm可见的区域和带的光谱。模拟的光谱为每个区域匹配观测非常好,在K波段和低压区的H波段。我们对上层云分布的研究结果与以前的模型(Banfield等,1998)拟合低分辨率,棱纹光谱是一致的。为了寻找弱吸收大气成分而获得和模拟高分辨率行星光谱的能力可以对行星大气的化学成分提供更好的约束。

英文摘要:

We have obtained long-slit, infrared spectra of Jupiter with the Anglo Australian Telescope in the K and H bands at a resolving power of 2260. Using a line-by-line, radiative transfer model with the latest, improved spectral line data for methane and ammonia, we derive a model of the zonal characteristics in the atmosphere of this giant planet. We fit our model to the spectra of the zones and belts visible at 2.1 μm using different distributions of cloud opacities. The modeled spectra for each region match observations remarkably well at K band and in low pressure regions at the H band. Our results for the upper deck cloud distribution are consistent with previous models (Banfield et al.1998) fitted to low resolution, grism spectra. The ability to obtain and model high resolution planetary spectra in order to search for weakly absorbing atmospheric constituents can provide better constraints on the chemical composition of planetary atmospheres.
