The atmospheric structure of Triton in the altitude range 25-150 km shows an unexpectedly steep thermal gradient of 0.26 K km -1 above 50 km altitude, with a nearly isothermal profile below. The upper part of the profile can be explained by downward conduction of heat deposited by magnetospheric ele
A radiative-thermal conduction model for the vertical thermal structure of Io's atmosphere is developed with solar heating by \(\mathrm{SO}_{2}\) absorption in UV and near-IR bands and non-LTE cooling by \(\mathrm{SO}_{2} \nu_{1}, \nu_{2}, \nu_{3}\), vibrational bands and rotational lines. The model
