Notes. The values of the coefficient for the band at 0.62 μm, in bold format, have been estimated in this work. The upper one for 40 K is calculated using the spectrum of Pluto, and the lower one is calculated using the Makemake spectrum. The value for 30 K is calculated using the spectrum of Eris. The other Lambert coefficients are taken from Grundy et al. (2002).
