Bond Albedo: Albedo subtype
The Bond albedo is the fraction of power in the total electromagnetic radiation hitting an astronomical body which is scattered back out into space.
It considers all wavelengths at all phase angles. It is necessary for estimating how much energy a planet or other body absorbs.
