Calibration of optical instruments for absolute intensity measurements of upper atmospheric emissions
Description
Procedures for the calibration of an optical instrument for measurements of atmospheric quantal emissions are briefly outlined. The different techniques that are necessary in different spectral regions are discussed. As an example the calibration of a 0.6 m Czerny-Turner spectrometer, equipped with an imaging photon detector, is presented
