Abstract
We present photometry of snow samples in the backscattering direction, i.e., at very small phase (light-source target observer) angles. Relative brightness measurements are taken to study the backscattering behaviour of snow and ice samples to be able to interpret the opposition effect of icy solar-system surfaces (for example, icy rings and satellites). Preliminary results of three separate experiments are presented, all of which exhibit a similar feature: a backscattering peak is exhibited by snow of different grain types and with different amounts of contamination. The peak grows stronger with increasing contamination. PACS No.: 96.35
