Vapor Deposits in the Lunar Regolith [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 1994
Since the Apollo missions, we have emphasized the following points, which are based on theoretical calculations and on laboratory studies of the properties of evaporated silicate deposits and of lunar samples. The mass of vapor generated by impacts on the lunar surface is comparable in magnitude to the mass of impact melt glasses; the physics of impact
