The hydrogen Lyman α line shape in the exospheres of terrestrial objects in the solar system

The exospheres of all objects are mostly made of atomic hydrogen. Because the Sun is bright in Lyman α, the properties of the H atoms in the exospheres of certain terrestrial solar system objects can be studied by analyzing the resonantly scattered solar Lyman α emission by these exospheric H atoms....
