Solar Wind Proton Implantation and Hydrogen Diffusion: Model Comparisons to M3 Observations
O. J. Tucker, W. M. Farrell, S. Li +3
The Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) observed a widespread 3-micron absorption feature on the lunar surface, commonly attributed to surficial OH and/or H2O. The feature varies with lati…
Feasibility of characterizing subsurface brines on Ceres by electromagnetic sounding
Robert Grimm, Julie Castillo-Rogez, Carol Raymond +1
The ice-rich dwarf planet Ceres is the largest object in the main asteroid belt and is thought to have a brine or mud layer at a depth of tens of kilometers. Furthermore, recent su…
On the Effect of Magnetospheric Shielding on the Lunar Hydrogen Cycle
Orenthal J. Tucker, William M. Farrell, Andrew R. Poppe
We examine how water is produced globally over the lunar surface as it orbits in/out of the magnetotail. Due to the interaction of the solar wind (SW) with Earth's magnetic field,…
Dust Ablation on the Giant Planets: Consequences for Stratospheric Photochemistry
Julianne I. Moses, Andrew R. Poppe
Ablation of interplanetary dust supplies oxygen to the upper atmospheres of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Using recent dynamical model predictions for the dust influx rates…
Plutos interaction with its space environment: Solar Wind, Energetic Particles & Dust
F. Bagenal, M. Horányi, D. J. McComas +23
The New Horizons spacecraft carried three instruments that measured the space environment near Pluto as it flew by on 14 July 2015. The Solar Wind Around Pluto instrument revealed…
