Meteorites on Mars observed with the Mars Exploration Rovers [PDF]

open access: greenJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2008
Reduced weathering rates due to the lack of liquid water and significantly greater typical surface ages should result in a higher density of meteorites on the surface of Mars compared to Earth. Several meteorites were identified among the rocks investigated during Opportunity's traverse across the sandy Meridiani plains.

Muon radiography for exploration of Mars geology [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Instrumentation, Methods and Data Systems, 2013
Muon radiography is a technique that uses naturally occurring showers of muons (penetrating particles generated by cosmic rays) to image the interior of large-scale geological structures in much the same way as standard X-ray radiography is used to image
