These features, combined with a near- lambertian viewing characteristic, result in an ‘ink on paper’ look. (16 words)
A Lambertian scatterer will then scatter this light according to the same cosine law as a Lambertian emitter. (18 words)
The emission of a Lambertian radiator does not depend upon the amount of incident radiation, but rather from radiation originating in the emitting body itself. (25 words)
Uses Lambert's cosine law in its reversed form ( Lambertian reflection ) implies that the apparent brightness of a Lambertian surface is proportional to the cosine of the angle between the surface normal and the direction of the incident light. (39 words)
The wedges in the circle each represent an equal angle dΩ, and for a Lambertian surface, the number of photons per second emitted into each wedge is proportional to the area of the wedge. (34 words)
The fact that it does not diminish illustrates that the moon is not a Lambertian scatterer, and in fact tends to scatter more light into the oblique angles than would a Lambertian scatterer. (33 words)

Uses Lambert's cosine law in its reversed form ( Lambertian reflection ) implies that the apparent brightness of a Lambertian surface is proportional to the cosine of the angle between the surface normal and the direction of the incident light.
For example, if the moon were a Lambertian scatterer, one would expect to see its scattered brightness appreciably diminish towards the terminator due to the increased angle at which sunlight hit the surface.
The emission of a Lambertian radiator does not depend upon the amount of incident radiation, but rather from radiation originating in the emitting body itself.
These features, combined with a near- lambertian viewing characteristic, result in an ‘ink on paper’ look.
