Thin Film Absorbance Spectra of Forsterite and Fayalite Dust Grains
Abstract
Forsterite and fayalite dust grains exist in a variety of astrophysical and planetary environments. We present mid- and far-IR laboratory DAC thin film absorbance spectra and peak positions for ~20 compositions along the Fo/Fa binary, including intermediate values absent in recent studies.
