Calculating Occultation Light Curves using Wavelets: Exponential Atmospheres and the Constraints of Static Stability
Leslie A. Young, Michael J. Person
The signatures of waves are seen during many high-quality ground-based refractive stellar occultations by solar system atmospheres. We present a new forward-modeling technique for…
