Reflection, emission, and polarization properties of surfaces made of hyperfine grains, and implications for the nature of primitive small bodies
Robin Sultana, Olivier Poch, Pierre Beck +8
There are various indications that the most primitive small bodies (P, D-type asteroids, comets) have surfaces made of intimate mixtures of opaque minerals and other components (si…
Spectropolarimetry of life: airborne measurements from a hot air balloon
Willeke Mulder, C. H. Lucas Patty, Stefano Spadaccia +6
Does life exist outside our Solar System? A first step towards searching for life outside our Solar System is detecting life on Earth by using remote sensing applications. One powe…
Negative polarization properties of regolith simulants -- Systematic experimental evaluation of composition effects
Stefano Spadaccia, C. H. Lucas Patty, Holly L. Capelo +2
Polarization phase curves of asteroids and other small airless bodies are influenced by the compositional and physical properties of their regolith. The mixing of minerals composin…
Directional aspects of vegetation linear and circular polarization biosignatures
C. H. Lucas Patty, Antoine Pommerol, Jonas G. Kühn +2
Homochirality is a generic and unique property of all biochemical life and is considered a universal and agnostic biosignature. Upon interaction with unpolarized light, homochirali…
Circular spectropolarimetric sensing of chiral photosystems in decaying leaves
C. H. Lucas Patty, Luuk J. J. Visser, Freek Ariese +5
Circular polarization spectroscopy has proven to be an indispensable tool in photosynthesis research and (bio)-molecular research in general. Oxygenic photosystems typically displa…
