Layering Structures in the Porous Material Beneath the Chang'e‐3 Landing Site
The lunar penetrating radar (LPR) onboard the Chinese Chang'e‐3 (CE‐3) mission obtained high‐resolution profile data for the continuous ejecta deposits of the Ziwei crater.

The ORCA‐TWIN qCMOS Experiment I. Science Case and Commissioning at Calar Alto Observatory
ABSTRACT We describe a pilot study to explore a new generation of fast and low noise CMOS image sensors for time domain astronomy, using two remote telescopes with a baseline of 1635 km. The experiment involves direct imaging with novel qCMOS image sensor technology that combines fast readout with sub‐electron readout noise.

Ejecta Blankets at Small Craters on the Moon
Impact-derived ejecta covers most of the lunar surface, originating from recent impacts through to the beginning of the geologic record. Despite how common ejecta is, accurate measurements of ejecta thickness are difficult to obtain, and existing ...

ABSTRACT The Aso‐3 tephra is one of the most significant widespread marker layers from the Middle to Late Pleistocene, generated by a large caldera‐forming eruption at the Aso volcano in Kyushu, southwestern Japan. Despite its importance, a distal co‐ignimbrite ash correlative has yet to be clearly identified, primarily because although volcanic glass ...

Reidite Formation From Zircon Subjected to 20, 40, and 60 GPa Shock Experiments
Structure disordering as a result of shock pressure: In zircon shocked from 20 to 60 GPa, the shock‐induced structural disorder increases with increasing shock pressure (gray area). Shock disorder of zircon is an integral part of its transformation to reidite: Reidite occurs after amorphous material.

Pressurization of Shallow Magma Reservoir Preceding Basaltic Eruptions at an Open‐Vent Volcano
Abstract Open‐vent volcanoes are characterized by the persistent activity of outgassing, lava effusion and mild explosions, which is, however, occasionally interrupted by more violent explosive activity (paroxysm), for example, Stromboli (Italy). In spite of the different (two orders of magnitude) explosive intensities and different petrological magma ...

Abstract Titanomagnetite in alkaline maar deposits exhibits variable syn‐ and post‐crystallization alteration linked to wet emplacement and groundwater fluctuations, which remain poorly documented. Magnetic and mineralogical analyses of lapilli, scoria, and basalt from ICDP Eger drill cores S4 and S4b (Bažina maar, western Eger Graben, Czechia) reveal ...

Comparing Monte Carlo Models of Impact Alteration of Planetary Atmospheres
Abstract One process that affects atmospheric surface pressure is impact bombardment. The evolution of a planet's atmosphere under impact bombardment is an open question. We use a Monte Carlo method to evolve a range (0.006–92.5 bar) of initial atmospheres at Mars, Earth, and Venus under bombardment of 5×106 $5\times 1{0}^{6}$ impactors using seven ...
