Extraterrestrial Solar Spectrum, 3000–6100 Å at 1-Å Intervals

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

Standard values of the solar constant and extraterrestrial solar spectrum are reviewed. In the visible and near uv, this listing of average irradiance over 100-Å bandwidths at 50-Å intervals was found to be inadequate for many applications. A more detailed spectrum obtained from solar scans with a Perkin-Elmer, Model 112 monochromator was found to give sufficient detail. A normalization program was developed to make the Perkin-Elmer curve agree with the standard curve. Values of extraterrestrial solar spectral irradiance at 1-Å intervals in the range 3000–6100 Å have been derived. The results are presented in tabular form and as spectral charts.
