Abstract

A procedure for calculating thermodynamic and optical properties of the vapors of cosmic bodies entering the earth’s atmosphere is described. Calculations were carried out on the basis of a mixture of the 16 elements Fe-O-Mg-Si-C-N-H-S-Al-Ca-Na-K-Ti-Cr-Mn-Ni for bodies of different chemical composition: H-, LL-, and C-chondrites, comet matter, and ice in the temperature range of 2–40 kK. The scale of quanta energies used in calculations of spectral absorption coefficients numbered approximately 22 thousand points. Examples of calculations are given.
