Analytical capability of K-Ar isochron dating on Mars: assessment from mineral compositions of Martian meteorites

Hikaru Hyuga, Yuichiro Cho, Yayoi N. Miura +2

Dating rocks with a precision of 200 Myr (2) has been required to understand the Martian habitability and volcanic history around 4000 Myr ago. In situ potassium-argon (K-A…

Heliocentric Distance Dependence of Zodiacal Light Observed by Hayabusa2#

Kohji Tsumura, Shuji Matsuura, Kei Sano +21

Zodiacal light (ZL) is sunlight scattered by interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) at optical wavelengths. The spatial distribution of IDPs in the Solar System may hold an important…
