Scientific paper

Narrowband spectrophotometry of satellite eclipses is presented for each of the Galilean satellites. Comparing the partially eclipsed full-phase satellite disk to the uneclipsed disk can reveal colorimetric inhomogeneities on the surface. The trailing half-disk of Ganymede is slightly blue compared to the leading half-disk. The trailing and leading half-disks of Callisto are similar to each other, as are the northern and southern half-disks. The northern half-disk shows evidence of blue and red portions. The trailing half-disk of Europa is redder than the leading half-disk.
