The 630 nm and 557.7 nm Airglow During HF Ionosphere Pumping by the SURA Facility Radiation for Pump Frequencies Near the Fourth Electron Gyroharmonic
Š 2015, Springer Science+Business Media New York. We present the results of analysis of the dependence of the ionospheric airglow in the red (630 nm) and green (557.7 nm) lines of atomic oxygen on the pump-wave frequency f0 near the fourth electron gyroharmonic 4fce. The experimental data were obtained in 2012 using the SURA heating facility. Stimulated electromagnetic emission spectra were used to determine the relation between f0 and 4fce. It is found that at f0 > 4fce and δf = f0 â 4fce â 15â20 kHz the red-line airglow intensity is about a factor of 1.5 higher for the magnetic zenith pumping (when the pump beam is inclined 12° south of the magnetic field direction) than for the vertical pumping. In the green line for the same offsets δf, the airglow was recorded with confidence only during magnetic zenith pumping. During vertical pumping, no regular dependence of the red-line airglow intensity on δf in the range â15 < δf < 280 kHz was obtained, while the green-line airglow was observed at 15 < δf < +5 kHz and 230 < δf < 280 kHz. In the red line during vertical pumping, a change from the artificial airglow generation to the ionospheric background suppression was detected when the F-layer cutoff frequency was decreased. During magnetic zenith pumping, a wide (about 30°) background suppression zone was observed around the airglow spot with an about 6° angular width

TOI-824 b: A New Planet on the Lower Edge of the Hot Neptune Desert
We report the detection of a transiting hot Neptune exoplanet orbiting TOI-824 (SCR J1448-5735), a nearby (d = 64 pc) K4V star, using data from the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite. The newly discovered planet has a radius R p = 2.93 Âą 0.20 Râ and an orbital period of 1.393 days. Radial velocity measurements using the Planet Finder Spectrograph and the High Accuracy Radial velocity Planet Searcher spectrograph confirm the existence of the planet, and we estimate its mass to be 18.47 Âą 1.84 Mâ. The planet's mean density is Ďp = 4.03-0.78+0.98 g cm-3, making it more than twice as dense as Neptune. TOI-824 b's high equilibrium temperature makes the planet likely to have a cloud-free atmosphere, and thus it is an excellent candidate for follow-up atmospheric studies. The detectability of TOI-824 b's atmosphere from both ground and space is promising and could lead to the detailed characterization of the most irradiated small planet at the edge of the hot Neptune desert that has retained its atmosphere to date
