Emissivity of Ammonia Ice

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.
