Outline of Final Research Achievements

The circumpolar stratospheric telescope FUJIN-2 has been developed for observations of planetary atmospheres and plasmas. The dynamics, chemistry and identification of an UV abosorber of the Vinus atmosphere are selected as the first scientific target. Development of the hardware of FUJIN-2 has been promoted based on the experimental data obtained by FUJIN-1. Development of the optics, electrical and attitude control systems has been completed. A balloon experiment at ESRANGE in Kiruna, Sweden has been proposed. As an important scientific result about the Venus atmosphere large stationary thermal structures have been discovered by the Longwave Infrared Camera onboard the Venus orbiter Akatsuki. From detaied analysis of the observed data it is suggested that atmospheric gravity waves generated in the lower atmosphere by the solar radiation energy propagate to the cloud-top altitudes forming the structures.
