Scientific paper

Data on the spectral reflecting power of Venus obtained by various observers are analyzed with allowance for the outgoing IR radiation. The relationship between the spherical albedo and the wavelength has been determined for the range 0.2-4.0 microns; also determined are the visual albedo (A = 0.85) and the integral albedo (A = 0.75) of Venus. At wavelengths greater than 1.5 micron, the relationship between the monochromatic albedo and the wavelength is in good agreement with the hypothesis that the upper part of the cloud layer consists mainly of particles of an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid.
