It is known that v'-2-5 of O2(b ) are generated in aurorae, and possible mechanisms for this process are discussed in a recent paper [Slanger, 1986], drawing from earlier suggestions by Vallance Jones [1974, 1975] and $wider [1974]. However, the study of Torr et al. [1986] is the first to suggest that there are significant emissions from these levels in the dayglow.Unfortunately, no spectral simulation was performed, and
