Properties of Lunar Regolith on the Moon's Farside Unveiled by Chang'E‐4 Lunar Penetrating Radar [PDF]
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.

Simulation of the Lunar Regolith and Lunar-Penetrating Radar Data Processing
Lunar-penetrating radar (LPR) was conducted by the “Yutu” rover of China's Chang-E 3 lunar mission to study the shallow subsurface of the Moon. Both regolith modeling and numerical simulation can provide a reliable reference for data processing of the Moon.
