Scientific paper

Results are presented from spectropolarimetric observations of 10-arcsec regions of the lunar surface at small phase angles. On the basis of data for 100 regions, a nearly linear relationship is found between albedo and the minimum value of negative polarization, with indications of slight deviations from linearity in low albedo regions. In seven regions of different morphological types, a dependence of the inversion angle on wavelength is observed in the 0.4-0.8 micron range. No correlation is found between the minimum value of negative polarization and brightness surge.
