OBSERVATION OF CO2 628 ISOTOPOLOGUE2+3 BAND IN THE ATMOSPHERE OF VENUS PART 1: OBSERVING CO2 ON VENUS FROM SPACECRAFT
Interplanetary Transfer Orbit : Venus Express spacecraft FINAL OPERATIONAL ORBIT ON THE 7th MAY 2006. 7 INSTRUMENTS ON BOARD SPICAV/SOIR From launch till Venus capture.
SPICAV on Venus Express SPICAV an ACRONYM for: SPectroscopy for the Investigation of the Characteristics of the Atmosphere of Venus Consists of three spectrometers in the UV and IR range with a total mass of 13.9 kg flying on the Venus Express (VEX) orbiter. Devoted to the study of the atmosphere of Venus from ground level to the outermost hydrogen corona at more than 40,000 km.(SPICAV P.I. JL BERTAUX)
SPICAV on Venus Express: Three spectrometers to study the global structure and composition of the Venus atmosphere Characteristics of the spectrometers
OBSERVATION PHASE: DIFFERENT MODES INCLUDES: Nadir pointing - preferably during pericentre pass, but possible on any portion of the orbit; VIRTIS, PFS, SPICAV and VMC may operate in this mode Limb observation - VIRTIS, PFS, SPICAV and VMC may operate in this mode Star occultation (SPICAV) &(SPICAV/SOIR) Radio science (VeRa) DEPENDS ON: 1) PAYLOAD CONFIGURATION & 2)SPACECRAFT ORIENTATION
The SOIR spectrometer is a new solar occultation IR spectrometer in the range λ=2.2–4.3 μm, with a spectral resolution λ/Δλ>15,000, the highest on board VEX (IASB Contribution). Simplified optical scheme of SOIR Includes a combination of an echelle grating and an AOTF crystal to sort out one order at a time & array Detector.
Comparison of Earth atmosphere transmission model with SOIR data for order 133 (TEST MODE ground base) Top: red curve- spectrum A typical read-out, recorded in spectrometer order 133. Bottom: black – model of Earth atmosphere, green—CH4 only, blue—H2O only. Adopted resolving power for the synthetic spectra is 20,000.
SOIR : Solar Occultation in the Infra Red. HOW ? VENUS ATMOSPHERE IS A HUGE ABSORPTION CELL WITH THE SUN AS LIGHT SOURCE FOR SPICAV-SOIR • Programming a solar occultation means, VEX is oriented with Solar entry ports for all three spectrometers of SPICAV to the Sun. • Solar spectra recorded by SOIR: • first above the atmosphere • then through the atmosphere

NIRSPEC spectra of the newly discovered band system of CO2 (628) on MARS. This spectral region is one of the prime search spaces for CH4 (methane) and C2H6 (ethane). The discovery of this 628 band is of high importance for assessing spectral confusion between these species. Geronimo L. Villanueva,, Michael J. Mumma, Robert E. Novak & Tilak Hewagama Icarus 195 (1)(2008), 34–44J.Q..S.R.T. 109 (2008) 883–894
A Glance at band system of CO2 (638) identified on MARS. HOW ABOUT 638? QUOTING: * The identification of the 2ν1 band of 638 is tentative. Little is known about the vibrational structure of this isotope The upper vibrational state (20001) has not been catalogued in the literature. Rothman el al. ** report spectroscopic constants for the (Fermi resonant) 20002 vibrational level at Gv= 2588.152 cm−1. *Villanueva, G. L., Mumma, M. J., Novak, R. E., Hewagama, T.

NIRSPEC spectra of the newly discovered band system of CO2 (638) on MARS. Two hypothesis by Villanueva et al. First hypothesis, the lines in the 2706–2720 cm−1 region correspond to the P-branch. BUT !! Expected R-branch lines in the 2730–2740 cm−1 region are not detected. Villanueva, G. L., Mumma, M. J., Novak, R. E., Hewagama, T. Icarus 195, 34–44 (2008)
NIRSPEC spectra of the newly discovered band system of CO2 (638) on MARS. Second hypothesis : detected lines correspond to the R-branch of the 638 2ν1 band system. The band center is lower than 2706 cm−1. The intensity distribution peaks at 2710 cm−1, which for a column temperature of 207 K would mean a band center at 2700.5 cm−1. Villanueva, G. L., Mumma, M.

Echelle grating & Detector With 4 grooves per mm the arctan(2) incidence-grating SOIR spectrometer operates on diffraction orders from 101 (4.4 μm) to 194 (2.3 μm). The SOIR optics pass the filtered and dispersed light to a photo-voltaic MCT (HgCdTe) detector in an Integrated Detector Dewar Cooler Assembly (IDDCA). The detector is arranged as a 320×256 array of 30 μm square pixels. The IDDCA is equipped with a 0.4 Watt Stirling cycle rotary microcooler.
