New empirical phase function of the lunar surface brightness derived from analysis of LROC WAC data as a tool for remote sensing of the Moon
A comparison of various expressions of phase function of brightness of the lunar surface was carried out and recommendations were given for their use for the reduction of photometric observations and solving the problems of remote sensing of the lunar surface. A new empirical phase χ-function derived from analysis of LROC WAC data is proposed. It has only two free parameters, but it allows for qualitative approximation of phase curves of the brightness for morphological formations of different nature both for Maria and Highlands, thus it is useful for photometric reduction of observation data. Parameter χ of this function does not depend on albedo (wavelength) and can serve as an assessment of the structural characteristics of the lunar surface, which is useful for solving the problems of remote sensing of the lunar surface. Parameter χ of this function also can serve as an effective tool for detecting new photometric anomalies on the surface of the Moon.
The results of the work are applicable for remote sensing of any atmosphereless surfaces of with complex topography.
