Scientific paper

Diviner's unique high-resolution thermal-infrared (TIR) observations have opened up a new spectral region with which the Moon can be explored. New spectral regions, however, also require new laboratory experiments to allow interpretation of returning data, which in the case of the TIR region is complicated by the effects of the lunar environment. In the Atmospheric, Oceanic and Planetary Physics Dept. of Oxford University a new laboratory has been constructed that includes an emission chamber to simulate conditions on the lunar surface and will soon contain an infrared goniometer. This new laboratory will allow us to make new infrared measurements under lunar conditions so that a lunar emissivity spectral library can be created.
