Thermophysical Properties of Lunar Regolith Revealed by Thermal-infrared Observations of the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) Diviner Radiometer

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The thermophysical properties of lunar regolith are crucial for lunar sciences and engineering. Here, we evaluate the thermophysical properties of lunar regolith between 75°N and 75°S from Diviner data by treating the radius of lunar regolith grains as a
