  1. PHOTOMETRIC AND RADIOMETRIC PROPERTIES OF PHOBOS REGOLITH FROM DATA GATHERED BY THE PHOBOS MISSION L.V. Ksanfomality, Space research institute of the RAS Moscow The second Moscow Solar system symposium Moscow, IKI, October 10-14, 2011

  2. KRFM PHOBOS-2 1989

  3. March 25, 1989

  4. The KRFM instrument operated in 9 photometric channels (325, 328, 346, 363, 410, 445, 488, 550 and 600 nm) and 6 radiometric channels (4.8-6.4, 6.1-7.8, 7.2-9.3, 9.2-13.6, 14.3-15.9, and 16.5- 49 mcm)

  5. The geometric albedo ρ (λn) = Ntm βF / Φ, where Φ is photometric function including two quantities, phase function θ(α) and function f of zenith distances of the Sun zs and of the spacecraft za: Φ (α, zs, za) = f (zs, za). The approach of Lumme for large particles (2 πr/ λ >>1) was used: θ(α) = (1 – Г) θ1(α) + Г θм(α), With θ1(α) – for single and θм(α) for multiple scattering.

  6. All the highly degraded craters along track 1 possess albedo from 4.8 to 6.8%, at wavelengths in the range 490-600 nm and from 3.1 to 4.0% at wavelengths in the range 330-410 nm. Conversely, the comparatively young craters have reduced albedo, for example, both the crater at 187°W and the neighboring crater at 197°W. Their albedo is lower, from 2.8 to 3.2% in the short-wave channel, and from 4.1 to 5.2% in the long-wave channel. In darker region along track 2, the albedo in the range 550-600 nm rapidly falls from 5.4 to 4.1%. In the short-waves (330-410 nm), the drop in albedo is less noticeable, from 3.2-3.5 to 2.9-3.0%. The minimum near 232° W represents a large, well-preserved crater with center at 25° N, 245° W. The albedo drops in the range 410-600 nm as approaching this crater, which is reasonable to associate with ejecta from the crater.
