Solar albedo and spectral reflectance for Apollo 15 and 16 lunar finesThe spectral directional reflectance of Apollo 15 and 16 fines was obtained for bulk densities of approximately 1000 and 1600 kg/cu m. The solar albedo as a function of illumination was calculated from these results. Comparison of solar albedos shows that Apollo 11, 12, and 15 soils fall into one group and the Apollo 14 and 16 soil results into a second group corresponding to mare or lunar highland materials.
