Experimental phase function and degree of linear polarization curve of olivine and spinel and the origin of the Barbarian polarization behaviour

Frattin, E. Martikainen, J. Muñoz, O.

We explore experimentally possible explanations of the polarization curves of the sunlight reflected by the Barbarian asteroids. Their peculiar polarization curves are characterized by a large-inversion angle, around 30°, which could be related to the presence of FeO-bearing spinel embedded in Calcium-Aluminum inclusions. In order to test this...
