Synopsis
Discover how a gas cools by emitting radiation, using a careful, first‑principles approach that does not assume equilibrium. This study develops a two‑state model to describe radiative and collisional transitions and explores how energy leaves a gas when radiation is not trapped by the medium. It applies the ideas to the upper atmosphere, where oxygen atoms and resonance radiation play a key role in energy balance.
The work lays out the core ideas behind radiative cooling, including how collisions redistribute energy, how photons are produced and absorbed, and how a simplified problem can reveal the basic behavior of the system. It then discusses how the model can be extended to more realistic conditions and what the results imply for atmospheric temperatures over time.
- Two‑state gas model and the balance between collisional and radiative transitions
- How radiation can carry energy away from a gas and how imprisonment of radiation affects cooling
- A simplified, solvable framework that yields insight into time evolution of temperature and state populations
- Application to the upper atmosphere and implications for nocturnal temperature changes
Ideal for readers interested in atmospheric physics, energy transfer in gases, and foundational approaches to radiative cooling.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the cooling effect of radiation on gases, focusing on the temperature changes caused by radiative transitions in gases composed of atoms with two electronic states. The author establishes the problem and formulates general equations for the system, taking into account the possibility of radiation imprisonment. By simplifying the equations and neglecting the effect of imprisonment, they carry out numerical calculations relevant to the upper Earth's atmosphere. The book concludes with a discussion of the significance of radiative cooling in the context of atmospheric physics, highlighting its role in shaping the thermal behavior of gases at high altitudes. The author's innovative approach and clear explanations provide valuable insights into the fundamental physics governing gas dynamics and radiative processes.
