In Situ Geochronology for the Next Decade: Mission Designs for the Moon, Mars, and Vesta
Barbara A. Cohen, Kelsey E. Young, Nicolle E. B. Zellner +27
Geochronology, or determination of absolute ages for geologic events, underpins many inquiries into the formation and evolution of planets and our Solar System. Absolute ages of an…
Lunar Volatiles and Solar System Science
Parvathy Prem, Ákos Kereszturi, Ariel N. Deutsch +38
Understanding the origin and evolution of the lunar volatile system is not only compelling lunar science, but also fundamental Solar System science. This white paper (submitted to…
Was the Sun a Slow Rotator? -- Sodium and Potassium Constraints from the Lunar Regolith
Prabal Saxena, Rosemary M. Killen, Vladimir Airapetian +3
While the Earth and Moon are generally similar in composition, a notable difference between the two is the apparent depletion in moderately volatile elements in lunar samples. This…
Highly Volcanic Exoplanets, Lava Worlds, and Magma Ocean Worlds: An Emerging Class of Dynamic Exoplanets of Significant Scientific Priority
Wade G. Henning, Joseph P. Renaud, Prabal Saxena +39
Highly volcanic exoplanets, which can be variously characterized as 'lava worlds', 'magma ocean worlds', or 'super-Ios' are high priority targets for investigation. The term 'lava…
Exoplanet Science Priorities from the Perspective of Internal and Surface Processes for Silicate and Ice Dominated Worlds
Wade G. Henning, Joseph P. Renaud, Avi M. Mandell +35
The geophysics of extrasolar planets is a scientific topic often regarded as standing largely beyond the reach of near-term observations. This reality in no way diminishes the cent…
A Model of the Primordial Lunar Atmosphere
Prabal Saxena, Lindy Elkins-Tanton, Noah Petro +1
We create the first quantitative model for the early lunar atmosphere, coupled with a magma ocean crystallization model. Immediately after formation, the moon's surface was subject…
