We present the results of measurements of the phase dependences of brightness and of the polarization and depolarization characteristics for surfaces consisting of spherical glass particles in the phase-angle range from 0.1° to 5.0°. The measurements are performed using the laboratory photometer/polarimeter of Kharkov Astronomical Observatory and the photometer of Jet Propulsion Laboratory. An optically thick layer of transparent-glass spheres with mean size of about 57 μm and refractive index of 1.44 exhibits a strong opposition effect due to single scattering. The contribution of interparticle scattering is nearly independent of the phase angle. At an angle of 0.4°, the spheres exhibit a glory ring that manifests itself in the phase behavior of all characteristics investigated. Small details are seen on the curves when a monochromatic radiation source is used for measurements. Their occurrence is confirmed by calculations based on the Mie theory. The unusual behavior of the phase dependences of reflectivity, degree of polarization, and color index for layers composed of spherical particles can be used to search for sites of possible deposits of spherical glass (or ice) particles in regoliths of atmosphereless celestial bodies.
