The Solar System is characterized by a large variety of objects, with sizes ranging from more than a hundred thousand km down to less than a /mi. All solar-system IR spectra are the sum of two components: at short wavelengths, the reflected sunlight provides information upon the albedo and the chemical composition of the body; at longer wavelengths (typically above 3 to 5 /um), the thermal emission provides information on the temperature of the surface or the atmosphere, and on the vertical distribution of atmospheric constituents.
