Solar reflectance of ETICS finishing coatings – a comparison of experimental techniques [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2020 The solar reflectance has a significant role in the thermal behaviour and surface temperature of ETICS finishing coats. Incomplete information of solar reflectance of ETICS with nanopigments can sometimes difficult their adequate selection. In this work,

Solar radio-frequency reflectivity and localization of FRB from solar reflection
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2022 ABSTRACT The radiation of a fast radio burst (FRB) reflects from the Moon and Sun. If a reflection is detected, the time interval between the direct and reflected signals constrains the source to a narrow arc on the sky. If both Lunar and Solar reflections are detected these two arcs intersect, narrowly confining the location on the sky.
