TY - T1 - Simulations of Effects of Nanophase Iron Space Weather Products on Lunar Regolith Reflectance Spectra SN - / UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10138/232531 T3 - A1 - Escobar-Cerezo, J.; Penttilä, Antti; Kohout, T.; Munoz, O.; Moreno, F.; Muinonen, K. A2 - PB - Y1 - 2018 LA - eng AB - Lunar soil spectra differ from pulverized lunar rocks spectra by reddening and darkening effects, and shallower absorption bands. These effects have been described in the past as a consequence of space weathering. In this work, we focus on the effects of nanophase iron (npFe(0)) inclusions on the experimental reflectance spectra of lunar regolith particles. The reflectance spectra are computed using SIRIS3, a code that combines ray optics with radiative-transfer modeling to simulate light scatte...
