This work combines laboratory astrophysics with basic rate process models in order to provide a broadly applicable research methodology for the aeronomy and planetary atmospheres community. The research project will: 1) investigate the physical chemistry controlling the thermal properties of the atomic oxygen dominated upper thermosphere, 2) establish accurate models of rate processes for species of primary importance to aeronomy, utilizing wherever possible, a combination of experimental and theoretical quantities for each process, and 3) establish an experimental design for the measurement of atomic nitrogen electron impact cross sections, with an accompanying atomic model for both N and N+.

这项工作将实验室天体物理学与基本速率过程模型相结合，以便为高层大气学和行星大气界提供一种广泛适用的研究方法。 该研究项目将：1）研究控制原子氧占主导地位的上部热层的热性质的物理化学，2）建立对高层大气学至关重要的物种的速率过程的精确模型，尽可能利用每个过程的实验和理论量的组合，和3）建立测量原子氮电子碰撞截面的实验设计，并附带了N和N+的原子模型。
