TL;DR: The MIXS-C is a collimated instrument which will achieve global coverage at a similar spatial resolution to that achieved (in the northern hemisphere only) by MESSENGER, and MIXs-T is the first ever X-ray telescope to be sent to another planet and will, during periods of high solar activity (or intense precipitation of charged particles), reveal the Xray flux from Mercury at better than 10 km resolution.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors demonstrate that slight variations in average grain size can be exploited, using differential centrifugation (followed by analysis using electron microscopy and isotope-ratio mass spectrometry), to produce separates that reflect contributions from specific sources.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate an ancient fluvial sedimentary system in western Arabia Terra, now preserved in positive relief, and show that it was an aggradational alluvial system and that the existing ridge was once a large river channel belt set in extensive flood plains.

TL;DR: In this article, it is shown that the variability in 16O appears originally to be related to predissociation and self-shielding of carbon monoxide likely in the primordial molecular cloud.

TL;DR: The study of 60 nm thick aluminum films exposed to the space environment outside of International Space Station finds that most detected particles have been generated locally as the result of secondaries following larger impacts elsewhere on the ISS or as a result of docking maneuvers by the Progress supply module or by other spacecraft.
