From: Using the transit of Venus to probe the upper planetary atmosphere

Figure 2

Radius values (data points) from the X-rays (X) to the extreme ultraviolet (EUV), ultraviolet and optical (V) band. The approximate full-width-half-maximum of each channel16,24 is marked (horizontal error bar). Predictions from a model8 at SZA=90° (blue dashed line) is shown for comparison.
