Evidence of a significant rotational non-LTE effect in the CO<sub>2</sub> 4.3 µm PFS-MEX limb spectra
Since January 2004, the planetary Fourier spectrometer (PFS) on board the Mars Express satellite has been recording near-infrared limb spectra of high quality up to the tangent altitudes ≈ 150 km, with potential information on density and thermal structure of the upper Martian atmosphere. We present...
