Scientific paper

Full-disk and high-resolution measurements recorded during the Voyager 1 flyby of Saturn by the radiometer instrument, IRIS, indicate a geometric albedo of 0.242 ± 0.012, which is lower than previous estimates. Infrared spectra recorded at the same time by the Michelson interferometer, along with a model extrapolation to wavenumbers not covered by the instrument, yield an effective temperature of 95.0 ± 0.4K.
