Comparison of space weathering spectral changes induced by solar wind and micrometeoroid impacts using ion- and femtosecond-laser-irradiated olivine and pyroxene

TL;DR: In this paper, the spectral changes caused by solar wind irradiation and by micrometeoroid bombardment were compared to gain a better understanding of the individual space weathering processes, and it was shown that the original mineralogy of the surface influences the spectral evolution more than the weathering agent, as seen from the diverse evolution of the spectral slope of olivine and pyroxene upon irradiation.

Major lunar crustal terranes: Surface expressions and crust‐mantle origins

TL;DR: In this paper, global geochemical information derived from Clementine multispectral data and Lunar Prospector gamma-ray data reveals at least three distinct provinces whose geochemistry and petrologic history make them geologically unique: (1) the Procellarum KREEP Terrane (PKT), (2) the Feldspathic High-lands terrane (FHT), and (3) the South Pole-Aitken Terane (SPAT).

Elemental composition of the lunar surface: Analysis of gamma ray spectroscopy data from Lunar Prospector

TL;DR: In this article, a linear spectral mixing is used to model the observed gamma ray spectrum for each map pixel and the spectral shape for each elemental constituent is determined by a Monte Carlo radiation transport calculation.
