Abstract
We performed our investigations on mono-mineralogical phases of two terrestrial pyroxenes, a diopsidic augite and a hyperstene as well as on four meteoritic samples, Millbillillie, Ellemeet, Soko-Banja and Vaca Muerta, which represent extraterrestrial matter and could be considered to be analogs for surface material of some asteroid classes. Beside the known spectral variations characterizing ortho- and clinopyroxenes as well as basaltic assemblages, temperature related effects on the reflectance spectra are discussed.
