Fox, J.L. (1979). Ionization, luminosity, and heating of the upper atmosphere of Mars. Journal of Geophysical Research 84: doi: 10.1029/JA080i012p07315. issn: 0148-0227.

A model based upon Viking data is constructed of the Martian atmosphere, and a comprehensive quantitative discussion is given of the measurements of the ultraviolet dayglow. A detailed assessment is made of the heating of the neutral and ionized components of the atmosphere arising from the absorption ultraviolet solar radiation.
