Scientific paper

The July 12, 1973, occultation of Europa by Io was observed in 30 wavelength channels in the spectral region between 3200 and 11,000 A with the 200-inch Hale telescope and a multichannel spectrometer. The data are presented in absolute units above the earth's atmosphere and are analyzed to obtain the spectral reflectivity of seven localized areas on the disk of Europa centered on 324 deg W longitude. The equatorial material is confirmed to be darker than the eastward-skewed bright north polar cap and a hint is evident that the darker material may be somewhat redder than the cap material.
