Help for PHO_BURATTI2


PURPOSE:

In this PDF, the user is asked for the only parameters needed for the Buratti's
photometric function.

MATHEMATICAL BACKGROUND :

bidirectional reflectance [1/str] :

r(i,e,g) = A * cos(i)/(cos(i)+cos(e)) * burf + (1 - A) * cos(i)

burf = ((1 - A) * 2/3 + A*E)*phi - (1 - A) * 2/3 * ((sin(phase) + (PI - phase) 
* cos(phase))/PI)

BURATTI2 approximation : 
phi = 1 + phase * (B + phase * C)
