Iso, Planets And Satellites: Individual: Callisto And Mars

Scientific paper

Infrared spectra of Mars were taken with the two complementary spectrometers onboard the European Space Agency's Infrared Space Observatory, ISO, both in moder- ate- and high-resolution mode. From the strengths of the observed water lines we derived information about the vertical distribution of water vapor and on the emissivity of the dust/surface system in the far infrared. The emissivity values obtained with this method were then compared with laboratory spectra of several minerals. A complete spectrum of Callisto from 50 to 180 μm is presented. It shows very good overall agreement with a model originally developed to match the far-infrared spectra of asteroids. Slight discrepancies between observation and model at certain wavelengths are discussed.
