Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract Analysis of space weathering features in lunar regolith using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) allows researchers to characterize the surface exposure timescale of individual grains from the Moon. TEM analysis of regolith grains from Apollo 17 scoop samples, collected from five different locations in the Taurus‐Littrow Valley (TLV), each

Laboratory studies of interplanetary dust [PDF]
Interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) are a form of primitive extraterrestrial material. In spite of the formidable experimental problems in working with particles that are too small to be seen with the naked eye, it has proven possible to obtain ...

Charging of Aggregate Grains in Astrophysical Environments
, 2013 The charging of dust grains in astrophysical environments has been investigated with the assumption these grains are homogeneous spheres. However, there is evidence which suggests many grains in astrophysical environments are irregularly-shaped ...

Formation of Asteroid (16) Psyche by a Giant Impact
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract Asteroid (16) Psyche is the largest likely metal‐rich asteroid in the Solar System and the target of the NASA Psyche mission. The mission aims to determine whether the asteroid is the core of a differentiated planetesimal that lost its mantle via a giant impact.

Sources of Interplanetary Dust [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1980 It is generally assumed that ejections from active cometary nuclei are the major source of replenishment of the interplanetary dust complex. Conjectures against this concept are usually based on comparison of the quantitative efficiency of the dust production by comets with the efficiency of all the dissipative processes involved.

Electrostatic Modeling of Dust Impact Signals Based on the Expanding Plasma Cloud
The Astrophysical JournalSignals generated by dust impacting spacecraft can be detected by electric field instruments. These signals have been simulated by numerous models. However, few models can accurately characterize the expansion of the plasma cloud generated by dust impact.

Occurrence of metal iron inside the planets
Геофизический журнал, 2016 Comparison of thermomagnetic and microprobe data on metal iron in terrestrial rocks (xenolithes, Siberian trap and oceanic basalt) has been conducted with the data on extraterrestrial metal iron (in sediments, lunar basalt and meteorites).
