Abstract
AbstractSome of the Galilean satellites show evidence of two distinct surface types, a high albedo frost and a dark, presumably silicate material. We are beginning a program to map the spatial distribution of these components with a Michel son spatial interferometer. This will be done both in and next to the 2.0µm frost absorption band. While the mapping program is just beginning, this investigation has already yielded new information on the wavelength dependence of seeing in the infrared.
