Spectral Mixture Modeling with Laboratory Near-Infrared Data II: Effects of Grain Size and Implications for Europa
A. Emran
Spectral analysis using linear mixture (LM) and radiative transfer-based (RT) intimate mixture modeling based on Hapke theory at near-infrared wavelengths are applied to estimate t…
Global Distribution of Serpentine on Mars
A. Emran, J. D. Tarnas, K. M. Stack
The distribution and origin of serpentine on Mars can provide insights into the planet's aqueous history, habitability, and past climate. In this study, we used dynamic aperture fa…
Kiladze Caldera: A Possible Cryovolcano on Pluto
A. Emran, D. P. Cruikshank, C. J. Ahrens +2
In contrast with regional primarily methane composition, Kiladze and its surroundings exhibit a water-ice spectral signature that carries an ammoniated compound, similar to two oth…
Surface Composition of Pluto's Kiladze Area and Relationship to Cryovolcanism
A. Emran, C. M. Dalle Ore, D. P. Cruikshank +1
A link between exposures of water (HO) ice with traces of an ammoniated compound (e.g., a salt) and the probable effusion of a water-rich cryolava onto the surface of Pluto…
Pluto's Surface Mapping using Unsupervised Learning from Near-Infrared Observations of LEISA/Ralph
A. Emran, C. M. Dalle Ore, C. J. Ahrens +3
We map the surface of Pluto using an unsupervised machine learning technique using the near-infrared observations of the LEISA/Ralph instrument onboard NASA's New Horizons spacecra…
Discrepancy in Grain Size Estimation of HO Ice in the Outer Solar System and the Interstellar Medium
A. Emran, V. F. Chevrier
Widespread detection of amorphous and crystalline water (HO) ice in the outer solar system bodies and the interstellar medium has been confirmed over the past decades. Radi…
Uncertainty in Grain Size Estimations of Volatiles on Trans-Neptunian Objects (TNOs) and Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs)
A. Emran, V. F. Chevrier
We analyze the uncertainty in grain size estimation of pure methane (CH4) and nitrogen saturated with methane (N2:CH4) ices, the most abundant volatile materials on trans-Neptunian…
Thermophysical and Compositional Analyses of Dunes at Hargraves Crater, Mars
A. Emran, L. J. Marzen, D. T. King +1
We analyze thermal emission spectra using the 2001 Mars Odyssey Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) and the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES) to c…
