TL;DR: The surface of the Moon is a critical boundary that shapes our understanding of the entire Moon as a whole as discussed by the authors, and it is the lower boundary layer of the tenuous lunar atmosphere and constitutes both a source and a sink for atmospheric gases.

Application of Remote Spectral Reflectance Measurements to Lunar Geology Classification and Determination of Titanium Content of Lunar Soils
TL;DR: In this paper, an empirical relationship is derived relating TiO2 content of the bulk lunar soils to the slope of the spectral curve between 0402 and 0564 μm and is governed by optical absorption in the glassy material of the soils.

Soft X-ray Emissions from Planets, Moons, and Comets
TL;DR: A brief review of the x-ray observations on each of the planetary bodies and discuss their characteristics and proposed source mechanisms is presented in this article, where a wide variety of solar system bodies are now known to radiate in the soft X-ray energy (10 keV) x-rays result mainly from the electron bremsstrahlung process.
