| Abstract: |
In order to interpret observed mid- to far-infrared spectra and
to test dust formation hypotheses, there is a need for
mid- to far-IR olivine laboratory spectra covering the
complete range of potential Mg and Fe compositions. However, past
studies have primarily focused on the Mg and Fe end-member olivines,
and did not always prepare and measure olivine samples under the same
conditions. In order to fill these gaps and provide a means for
breaking degeneracy between grain composition, size, shape, and
agglomeration effects, we provide new mid- to far-IR room-temperature
absorbance spectra for many Mg-Fe olivine samples, using a single
laboratory method. |
