Potential for the measurement of mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT) wind, temperature, density and geomagnetic field with Superconducting Submillimeter-Wave Limb-Emission Sounder 2 (SMILES-2)

<p>Submillimeter-Wave Limb-Emission Sounder 2 (SMILES-2) is a satellite mission proposed in Japan to probe the middle and upper atmosphere (20–160&thinsp;km). The main instrument is composed of 4&thinsp;K cooled radiometers operating near 0.7 and 2&thinsp;THz. It could measure th...
