Estimated optical constants of the Tagish Lake meteorite

Abstract— The visible, near‐infrared, and mid‐infrared (0.3–25 μm) real and imaginary indices of refraction are derived from reflectance measurements of the Tagish Lake meteorite. These are compared to some real and imaginary indices of refraction of the individual minerals composing the Tagish Lake meteorite. From this comparison, it is clear that the imaginary indices of several individual minerals contribute to the estimated imaginary index of this meteorite.
