Journal ArticleDOI
The nature and origin of Mafic Mound in the South Pole-Aitken Basin
D. P. Moriarty,Carle M. Pieters +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a hybrid origin in which Mafic Mound is an edifice formed by magmatic processes induced by the formation and evolution of the South Pole-Aitken Basin (SPA).
Journal ArticleDOI
Visible-infrared spectral properties of iron-bearing aluminate spinel under lunar-like redox conditions†
Colin R.M. Jackson,L. C. Cheek,K. B. Williams,Kerri Donaldson Hanna,Carle M. Pieters,Stephen W. Parman,Reid F. Cooper,M. Darby Dyar,Melissa Nelms,Mark R. Salvatore +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report visible to mid-infrared (V-IR) reflectance and Mossbauer spectra of aluminate spinels, synthesized at lunar-like oxygen fugacity (ƒO2), that vary systematically in Fe abundance.
Extraction of Compositional Information from Olivine Reflectance Spectra: A New Capability for Lunar Exploration
J. M. Sunshine,Carle M. Pieters +1 more
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of differential recoil-free fraction on ordering and site occupancies in Mössbauer spectroscopy of orthopyroxenes
TL;DR: In this paper, the M1 and M2 sites of the structure were corrected for effects of thickness and differential recoil-free fractions (f) on the two sites using a constant value of C = 1.1, the correction parameter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lunar Clinopyroxene and Plagioclase: Surface Distribution and Composition
TL;DR: In this article, the spectral and chemical characteristics of lunar soil samples were used to map the plagioclase and clinopyroxene abundance in the lunar surface material and the predicted distribution of the lunar regolith maturity.
