Comparing NASA Discovery and New Frontiers Class Mission Concepts for the Io Volcano Observer (IVO)
Christopher W. Hamilton, Alfred S. McEwen, Laszlo Keszthelyi +31
Jupiter's moon Io is a highly compelling target for future exploration that offers critical insight into tidal dissipation processes and the geology of high heat flux worlds, inclu…
Equivalence between simple multilayered and homogeneous laboratory-based rheological models in planetary science
Yeva Gevorgyan, Isamu Matsuyama, Clodoaldo Ragazzo
The goal of this work is to investigate under which circumstances the tidal response of a stratified body can be approximated by that of a homogeneous body. We show that any multil…
The thermal-orbital evolution of the Earth-Moon system with a subsurface magma ocean and fossil figure
Brynna G. Downey, Francis Nimmo, Isamu Matsuyama
Various theories have been proposed to explain the Moon's current inclined orbit. We test the viability of these theories by reconstructing the thermal-orbital history of the Moon.…
Evidence for Lunar True Polar Wander, and a Past Low-Eccentricity, Synchronous Lunar Orbit
James Tuttle Keane, Isamu Matsuyama
As first noted 200 years ago by Laplace, the Moon's rotational and tidal bulges are significantly larger than expected, given the Moon's present orbital and rotational state. This…
