Mineral Mixtures, Spectroscopy: Reflectance
Scientific paper
A combined laboratory and theoretical investigation is being conducted to determine the most accurate means of representing the particle size distribution of a mineral mixture for use in theoretical reflectance calculations. Radiative transfer theory is being used to model the laboratory reflectance spectra of mineral separates and mixtures which mimic carbonaceous and ordinary chondrites (the theoretical mixtures will be generated using the known chemistry, mineralogy, optical constants and grain size distributions which have been previously determined). Comparison of theoretical spectra computed using a single grain size (for example 52 micrometers) and the computed spectra using a cumulative power-law distribution to represent the same average grain size in mineral separates and mixtures show differences in the strength of absorption features which could affect estimates of minerals abundance.
