Self-Organization Characteristics of Lunar Regolith Inferred by Yutu-2 Lunar Penetrating Radar [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2021 Most previous studies tend to simplify the lunar regolith as a homogeneous medium. However, the lunar regolith is not completely homogeneous, because there are weak reflections from the lunar regolith layer.

Bulk Density of the Lunar Regolith at the Chang'E‐3 Landing Site as Estimated From Lunar Penetrating Radar [PDF]
Earth and Space Science, 2020 Bulk density of the lunar regolith is a key factor affecting its geophysical and geotechnical properties. In this study, a new method for estimating the bulk density of the lunar regolith is developed based on the geometric characteristic (i.e ...

Properties of Lunar Regolith on the Moon's Farside unveiled by Chang'E-4 Lunar Penetrating Radar [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2021 AbstractThe complex thermal history of the Moon leads to an unequal distribution of volcanic products between the lunar nearside and the farside. So far, no lunar materials have been sampled from the Moon's farside and no detailed properties of lunar regolith on the farside have been detected before.

A Novel Approach for Permittivity Estimation of Lunar Regolith Using the Lunar Penetrating Radar Onboard Chang’E-4 Rover [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2021 Accurate relative permittivity is essential to the further analysis of lunar regolith. The traditional hyperbola fitting method for the relative permittivity estimation using the lunar penetrating radar generally ignored the effect of the position and ...
