Rocket-borne Instrument Design to Observe Peak OH Meinel Band Vibrational Emission Profiles
… for each OH v' value in the mesosphere. Previous rocket flights using broad band sensors have been able to detect a 1-2 km altitude gap between the peak emissions of Av6. An instrument design is presented which will directly measure the individual peak OH vibrational emission altitudes for the v' …

Rocket Borne Measurements of a Near-Infrared Vehicle Induced Emission with a Newly Designed Spectrograph
… at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University for rocket borne observations of this glow. This instrument became a piggy-back payload on the Terrier-Orion SAMPLER 41.025 rocket payload launched from White Sands Missile Range in July, 2003. A photodiode detector array measured the mesospheric …

High-resolution studies of charge exchange in supernova remnants with Magellan, XMM-Newton, and Micro-X
… half of this thesis is Micro-X : a sounding rocket-borne X-ray telescope, utilizing an array of microcalorimeters to achieve high energy resolution for even extended sources. I describe the design and commissioning of the payload and the steps toward launch, which is anticipated in the spring …

Magnetic perturbations due to current structural variations
… caused by auroral currents has been conducted by rocket-borne magnetometer measurements for years. Since the horizontal auroral currents were usually found to be confined near the visible auroral arcs, as determined by Heppner [1954], Davis [1961], and Davis and Kimball [1962], a number of current …
