First results of the ISM experiment
Abstract
The ISM infrared imaging spectrometer on Phobos-2 provided about 40,000 spectra of Mars and Phobos in the 0.76-3.14-micron range. This paper presents the first results on the surface altimetry of Mars, the mineralogy of Mars and Phobos, and the trace constituents of the Mars atmosphere.
