Ion precipitation of the lunar surface and its impact on the lunar environment

Impacts of solar wind (SW) ions on the Moon contribute to surface hydration, alteration of the lunar surface via space weathering and the emission of atoms into the exosphere via sputtering [1]. Furthermore, scattering of SW protons as H+, H0 (energetic neutral atoms, ENAs) and recently as H- have allowed direct in-situ observations of ion impacts on ...

Observation of lunar impact flashes

2018
In this study, the results of 20 hours of observations to detect the lunar impact flashes from the ISTEK Belde Observatory are presented. Currently the ISTEK Belde Observatory is the only place working on lunar impact flash detection in Turkey. A 40 cm catadioptric telescope armed with a fast frame camera system is dedicated to this research.
