Vertical Structure and Color of Jovian Latitudinal Cloud Bands during the Juno Era Open
The identity of the coloring agent(s) in Jupiter’s atmosphere and the exact structure of Jupiter’s uppermost cloud deck are yet to be conclusively understood. The Crème Brûlée model of Jupiter’s tropospheric clouds, originally proposed by …

Is the formulation of the Fried parameter accurate in the strong turbulent scattering regime? Open
The Fried parameter is a fundamental coherence length measure that characterizes the spatial resolution effects of atmospheric turbulence on imaging and beam propagation. Its expression was originally derived with the Rytov approximation a…

Correcting etaloning fringes in hyperspectral image cubes of Jupiter using sensor thickness modeling with flat-field data fitting Open
Evidence of “fringing” due to optical etaloning was observed in narrowband hyperspectral image cubes of Jupiter collected prior to 2018 at the Apache Point Observatory 3.5-m telescope with the New Mexico State University Acousto-optic Imag…

Computer simulations of optical turbulence in the weak- and strong-scattering regime: angle-of-arrival fluctuations obtained from ray optics and wave optics Open
It is known that certain geometrical-optics predictions often agree well with optical turbulence field observations even though theoretical constraints for ignoring diffraction may be violated. Geometrical optics assumptions can simplify a…
