TL;DR: In this article, low energy ion measurements on the lunar orbit are realized more than 30 years after the Apollo period by low energy charged particle analyzers MAP-PACE on board SELENE(KAGUYA), which have found that 0.1%∼1% of the solar wind protons are reflected back from the Moon instead of being absorbed by the lunar surface.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The MAP-PACE-IMA experiment on SELENE (Kaguya) has completed its ∼1.5-year observation of low-energy charged particles around the Moon.
Journal ArticleDOI
Palaeointensity study of the Hawaiian 1960 lava: implications for possible causes of erroneously high intensities
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed a comprehensive investigation of palaeointensity measurements on 19 cores from the lava and found that the results showed a dependence on the oxidation indices, which can be explained by thermochemical remanent magnetization acquisition during the natural cooling stage of the lava.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lunar Magnetic Field Observation and Initial Global Mapping of Lunar Magnetic Anomalies by MAP-LMAG Onboard SELENE (Kaguya)
Hideo Tsunakawa,Hidetoshi Shibuya,Futoshi Takahashi,Hisayoshi Shimizu,Masaki Matsushima,Ayako Matsuoka,Satoru Nakazawa,Hisashi Otake,Yuichi Iijima +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, a de-trending technique of the Bayesian procedure was applied to multiple-orbit datasets observed in the tail lobe and in the lunar wake of the SELENE (Kaguya) spacecraft.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface vector mapping of magnetic anomalies over the Moon using Kaguya and Lunar Prospector observations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided preliminary global maps of three components of the lunar magnetic anomaly on the surface applying the surface vector mapping (SVM) method, showing the highest intensity of 718 nT in the Crisium antipodal region.
