High-Accuracy Emissivity Data on the Coatings Nextel 811-21, Herberts 1534, Aeroglaze Z306 and Acktar Fractal Black

A. Adibekyan and E. Kononogova and C. Monte and J. Hollandt

The Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt determined the directional spectral emissivities of several widely used black coatings: Nextel 811-21, Herberts 1534, Aeroglaze Z306 and Acktar Fractal Black. These are and were often applied in different industrial and scientific applications. The measurements are taken …

Infrared optical properties of α-alumina with the approach to melting: γ-like tetrahedral structure and small polaron conduction

J. F. Brun and L. del Campo and D. De Sousa Meneses and P. Echegut

The normal spectral emittance of α-Al2O3 single crystal has been measured from room temperature up to the liquid state and from 20 cm⁻¹ up to 10000 cm⁻¹, in two polarization configurations. The spectra were fitted with a semi-quantum dielectric function …

ALUMINUM OXIDE Al₂O₃: Normal spectral emittance

New Sulfide and Selenide Glasses: Preparation, Structure, and Properties

E. R. Plumat

The properties of many sulfide and selenide glasses correspond closely to related oxide systems; this correspondence can be correlated with the ratios of the valences and of the radii of the anions and cations. The analogy of chalcogenides to oxides …

SULFIDE GLASS: Normal spectral transmittance

Optical phonons of yttrium aluminum garnet

J. P. Hurrell, S. P.s. Porto, I. F. Chang, S. S. Mitra, R. P. Bauman

The dielectric properties and optical phonons of yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) have been studied by measurements of the infrared (IR) reflection spectra and the Raman effect. A factor group analysis of the YAG space group shows that there are 18 …

YTTRIUM ALUMINATE Y₃Al₅(AlO₄)₃: Normal spectral reflectance

Spectral reflectivity of lunar samples

John B. Adams, Robert L. Jones

Twelve rock chips and two samples of fines all have electronic absorption bands in diffuse reflected light between 0.32 and 2.5 micrometers. Major bands occur between 0.94 and 1.00 micrometer and at 2.0 micrometers, and arise from Fe2+ in clinopyroxene …

LUNAR SAMPLES: Angular spectral reflectance

Thermal radiation properties and thermal conductivity of lunar material

Richard C. Birkebak, Clifford J. Cremers, James P. Dawson

The thermal radiation properties were measured for lunar fines and chips from three different lunar rocks. Measurements for the fines were made at atmospheric pressure and at a pressure of 10-5 torr or lower. The directional reflectance was obtained over …

LUNAR SAMPLES: Angular spectral reflectance

Luminescence and reflectance of tranquillity samples: Effects of irradiation and vitrification

Douglas B. Nash, James E. Conel, Raymond T. Greer

Luminescence measurements of Tranquillity samples indicate that energy efficiencies for excitation by protons and ultraviolet are in the range 10-6 or below and natural and induced thermoluminescence is even weaker. If these samples are typical, lunar surface luminescence cannot occur …

LUNAR SAMPLES: Angular spectral reflectance

Optical and high-frequency electrical properties of the lunar sample

T. Gold, M. J. Campbell, B. T. O'leary

Reflectivity and polarization laws for the powder sample and its spectrum are close to the mean for the lunar maria. Solid samples show a marked absorption feature at 1 micron. The low albedo appears to be due to a surface …

LUNAR SAMPLES: Angular spectral reflectance

Quantitative optical and electron-probe studies of the opaque phases

P. R. Simpson, S. H.u. Bowie

Ilmenite, chrome-titanium spinel, ulvöspinel, troilite, native iron, iron-nickel alloy, and native copper are present. In addition mackinawite is provisionally identified. Three additional opaque phases are present but not identified. Modal analysis indicates that the breccia is enriched in iron relative …

LUNAR SAMPLES: Angular spectral reflectance

Total reflection spectrophotometry and thermogravimetric analysis of simulated Martian surface materials

Carl Sagan, Jean P. Phaneuf, Michael Ihnat

The ultraviolet, visible, and near infrared reflection spectra of the Martian bright areas have been compared with the corresponding laboratory reflectivities, measured with an integrating sphere, of a variety of minerals containing ferric oxides and silicates, as solids and in …
