A measurement of the efficiency of lithium vapor production in high altitude releasesThe masses of lithium vapor produced in two sounding rocket chemical releases were determined by comparing ground measurements of the irradiance and the brightness distribution of the sunlit releases with the results from a model calculation. The yields of the two releases, which had different compositions, were found to be approximately 5 and 15 percent of the available lithium.
