Abstract

We present the results of laboratory measurements characterizing the near infrared spectrum of solid nitrogen at temperatures between 35 K and 60 K. The measurements show that the appearance of the spectrum in the regions of both the fundamental vibrational transition and its first overtone is temperature dependent. The temperature dependence of the spectrum in the overtone region provides a means of determining the temperature of N₂ ice on Solar System objects using groundbased spectroscopy.
