Aerospace | A formula for the optical air mass m in terms of the zenith distance z of the sun or other celestial body: m = R/58.36 sec sin z where R is astronomical refraction, seconds of arc. For values of z less than about 70°, the Bemporad formula can be replaced by the simpler approximate formula,m = sec z. (references) |
