Impact-induced ultra-high melting point oldhamite discovered in Chang’E-6 lunar soil

Nature Communications
Chang’E-6 lunar soil was the first sample collected on the lunar farside. It provides insights into impact history and thermodynamic evolution of the Moon. Here we show the discovered widespread oldhamite (CaS) in lunar regolith samples.

Characteristics of dust plasma environment at lunar south pole

Acta Physica Sinica
Unlike the Earth, the Moon lacks is not protected from the atmosphere and global magnetic field, and will be directly exposed to complex radiation environments such as high-energy cosmic rays, solar wind, and the Earth’s magnetotail plasma. The surface of the Moon is covered with a thick layer of lunar soil, and the particles in the soil with a ...

Numerical simulation of light-element geochemistry of the lunar surface using a compact and lightweight XRF imaging spectrometer

Earth, Planets and Space
Understanding the evolution of the Moon requires mapping the global distribution and abundance of major elements on the lunar surface. X-ray fluorescence exploration is a promising method for estimating the distribution of light elements. The lunar south

Surface Roughness at the Moon’s South Pole: The Influence of Condensed Volatiles on Surface Roughness at the Moon’s South Pole

The Planetary Science Journal
Condensed volatiles within lunar permanently shadowed regions are of high scientific and resource utilization importance. Volatiles remain elusive and difficult to observe directly, due to low direct solar illumination.
