Photometric modelling and VIS-IR albedo maps of Rhea from Cassini-VIMS

Buratti, B. J.; Clark, R. N.; Stephan, K. +6 more

Photometric correction based on the Shkuratov method is applied to derive visible and infrared albedo maps of Rhea from disc-resolved Cassini VIMS data. Differently from I/F images, albedo maps offer an optimal disentanglement of composition and physical properties of the surface from illumination-viewing effects and to study spectral variations o…
