Abstract

The excitation of {0,2) band of CO third positive system in the dayglow of martian atmosphere is considered. It is found that the intensity of this band should be several kilorayleighs, the major contribution coming from 115-145 kill region of the atmosphere of mars. Simple calculations show that the intensity of the band is too small to be observed from the surface of the earth, but becomes observable at a distance less than 4000 km from mars.
