Spectro-photometry of Phobos simulants: II. Effects of porosity

Antonin Wargnier, Olivier Poch, Giovanni Poggiali +13

Surface porosity has been found to be an important property for small bodies. Some asteroids and comets can exhibit an extremely high surface porosity in the first millimeter layer…
