The Distribution of Molecular Water in the Lunar South Polar Region based upon 6-micron Spectroscopic Imaging
William T. Reach, Paul G. Lucey, Casey I. Honniball +2
The amount and distribution of water on the lunar surface are related to the input and production of water by solar wind and meteoroid bombardment, balanced by photodestruction and…
Passive bistatic radar probes of the subsurface on airless bodies using high energy cosmic rays via the Askaryan effect
R. L. Prechelt, E. Costello, R. Ghent +4
We present a new technique to perform passive bistatic subsurface radar probes on airless planetary bodies. This technique uses the naturally occurring radio impulses generated whe…
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…
Global regolith thermophysical properties of the Moon from the Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment
Paul O. Hayne, Joshua L. Bandfield, Matthew A. Siegler +8
We used infrared data from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) Diviner Lunar Radiometer Experiment to globally map thermophysical properties of the Moon's regolith fines layer.…
Simulated Space Weathering of Fe- and Mg-rich Aqueously Altered Minerals Using Pulsed Laser Irradiation
H. M. Kaluna, H. A. Ishii, J. P. Bradley +2
The aim of this work is to investigate contrasting spectral trends observed in carbonaceous chondrites by simulating space weathering effects on a subset of minerals found in these…
Are Large Trojan Asteroids Salty? An Observational, Theoretical, and Experimental Study
Bin Yang, Paul Lucey, Timothy Glotch
With a total mass similar to the main asteroid belt, the Jovian Trojan asteroids are a major feature in the solar system. Based upon the thermal infrared spectra of the largest Tro…
