Scientific paper

Models employing Hapke's (1981) radiative transfer theory are presented for the 0.2-4.1 micron reflectance spectrum. A simultaneous intimate, as well as aereal, mixture solution of ice and dark material is envisioned, in order to satisfy both absorption band depths and reflectance levels. The models indicate that the surface's ice component is rather large-grained, and that the major spectral features above about 2.5 microns cannot be accounted for by the ice. Spectra obtained for the nonice material were similar to each other; their absorption features resemble hydrated silicates bearing both oxidation states of iron.
