Abstract

Extinction measurements were made for some silicate and iron-oxide mineral grains in mid- and far-infrared region. For far-infrared region, high temperature magnesium silicates such as olivine and pyroxenes show the absorption spectra of steep dependence as λ−3 (λ being the wavelength) with some peak structure, but the spectrum of magnetite shows λ−1 dependence.
