Emissivity of Ammonia Ice

Earth and Planetary Astrophysics 2019-03-13 v1 Chemical Physics

Abstract

Bodies in the outer Solar System may consist of, or be covered by, solid ammonia. Their temperature depends on its emissivity. We calculate that emissivity as a function of frequency, angle and polarization and convolve it with a Planck function to obtain its integrated emissivity.
