Exogenic and endogenic albedo and color patterns on Europa
TL;DR: In this article, the exogenic color and albedo pattern on Europa are described by a second-order function of the cosine of the angular distance from the apex of orbital motion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Voyager photometry of Europa
Bonnie J. Buratti,Joseph Veverka +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived the photometric properties of Europa using a linear superposition of a lunar-like scattering law and a Lambert component, which is an adequate simple representation of the scattering properties.

Europa's phase curve: Implications for surface structure
TL;DR: The surface of the Jovian satellite Europa is characterized on the basis of an analysis of ground photoelectric photometry at 470 and 550 nm and Voyager images as discussed by the authors, and it is concluded that the surface was formed mainly by endogenic processes.

Re-Analysis of the Solar Phase Curves of the Icy Galilean Satellites
Deborah Domingue,Anne Verbiscer +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a re-analysis of the solar phase curves of the icy Galilean satellites demonstrates that the quantitative results are dependent on the single particle scattering function incorporated into the photometric model; however, the qualitative properties are independent.
