摘要

中间层二氧化碳云是火星上已知的两种二氧化碳云之一。我们介绍了欧空局-俄罗斯航天局ExoMars痕量气体轨道器(TGO)上的大气化学套件(ACS)对中间层二氧化碳云的观测。我们分析了ACS的热红外(TIRVIM)和中红外(MIR)通道的1663次太阳掩星,时间跨度超过两年,其中包含2.7微米二氧化碳冰吸收波段的光谱。这使我们能够明确地将二氧化碳冰气溶胶与矿物尘埃和水冰气溶胶区分开来,而不依赖于大气热条件的信息。在海拔 39 千米至 90 千米的 11 次太阳掩星观测中,我们探测到了二氧化碳云。其中有五次观测发现了两层或三层二氧化碳云,这些云在垂直方向上相距 5-15 千米。二氧化碳气溶胶粒子的有效半径在 0.1-2.2 μm 之间。最小颗粒产生的光谱表明需要更好地解析二氧化碳冰的折射率。在 2.7 μm 和 0.8 μm 处,二氧化碳云的昼夜光学深度在 5 × 10-4-4 × 10-2 之间。由 ACS 观测到的不对称昼夜分布可能是由于热潮引起的局部温度时变造成的。在 TIRVIM 仪器探测到的五次二氧化碳云中,有两次发现同时存在二氧化碳冰和一氧化二氮冰气溶胶。利用 ACS 的近红外(NIR)通道测量的温度曲线计算二氧化碳云所在位置的二氧化碳饱和度比 S。在 19 个二氧化碳云层案例中,只有 6 个案例检测到超饱和度 S > 1;在 19 个案例中,有 9 个案例检测到 S < 0.1 的极低值。

Unambiguous detection of mesospheric CO2 clouds on Mars using 2.7 μm absorption band from the ACS/TGO solar occultations

Mesospheric CO2 clouds are one of two types of carbon dioxide clouds known on Mars. We present observations of mesospheric CO2 clouds made by Atmospheric Chemistry Suite (ACS) onboard the ESA-Roscosmos ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO). We analyzed 1663 solar occultation sessions of Thermal InfraRed (TIRVIM) and Middle InfraRed (MIR) channels of ACS covering more than two Martian years that contain spectra of 2.7 μm carbon dioxide ice absorption band. That allowed us to unambiguously discriminate carbon dioxide ice aerosols from mineral dust and water ice aerosols, not relying on the information of atmospheric thermal conditions. CO2 clouds were detected in eleven solar occultation observations at altitudes from 39 km to 90 km. In five cases, there were two or three layers of CO2 clouds that were vertically separated by 5–15 km gaps. Effective radius of CO2 aerosol particles is in the range of 0.1–2.2 μm. Spectra produced by the smallest particles indicate a need for a better resolved CO2 ice refractive index. Nadir optical depth of CO2 clouds is in the range 5 × 10−4–4 × 10−2 at both 2.7 μm and 0.8 μm. Asymmetrical diurnal distribution of detections observed by ACS is potentially due to local time variations of temperature induced by thermal tides. Two out of five cases of carbon dioxide cloud detections made by the TIRVIM instrument reveal the simultaneous presence of CO2 ice and H2O ice aerosols. Temperature profiles measured by the Near InfraRed (NIR) channel of ACS are used to calculate CO2 saturation ratio S at locations of carbon dioxide clouds. Supersaturation S > 1 is detected in only 6 out of 19 cases of CO2 cloud layers; extremely low values of S < 0.1 are found in 9 out of 19 cases.

期刊介绍: Icarus is devoted to the publication of original contributions in the field of Solar System studies. Manuscripts reporting the results of new research - observational, experimental, or theoretical - concerning the astronomy, geology, meteorology, physics, chemistry, biology, and other scientific aspects of our Solar System or extrasolar systems are welcome. The journal generally does not publish papers devoted exclusively to the Sun, the Earth, celestial mechanics, meteoritics, or astrophysics. Icarus does not publish papers that provide "improved" versions of Bode''s law, or other numerical relations, without a sound physical basis. Icarus does not publish meeting announcements or general notices. Reviews, historical papers, and manuscripts describing spacecraft instrumentation may be considered, but only with prior approval of the editor. An entire issue of the journal is occasionally devoted to a single subject, usually arising from a conference on the same topic. The language of publication is English. American or British usage is accepted, but not a mixture of these.
