Model Calculations for Cosmogenic Nuclides in Meteorites and the Lunar Surface. 1. Long‐lived Radionuclides

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Production rates for the cosmogenic radionuclides 10Be, 14C, 26Al, 36Cl, 41Ca, 53Mn, and 60Fe in a large variety of meteorites, that is, ordinary chondrites (H, L, LL), carbonaceous chondrites, HED meteorites, ureilites, Martian meteorites, and iron meteorites and in the uppermost ~2 m of the lunar surface are modeled.

The Lunar Surface Gravimeter as a Lunar Seismograph [PDF]

, 2008
Introduction: The primary objective for the Lunar Surface Gravimeter (LSG) on Apollo 17 was to search for gravitational waves, but it failed in detecting them [1]. When the instrument was deployed on the Moon, the sensor beam could not be balanced in the proper equilibrium position. Consequently, the LSG was not able to function as originally designed.

Terrestrial ages of meteorites from the Atacama Desert (Chile) and insights into the past meteorite flux to Earth

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Atacama Desert in Chile is characterized by its high meteorite density and old meteorite terrestrial ages. In this work, we present new terrestrial ages derived from measurements of the concentration of cosmogenic 36Cl in the metal fraction of 51 ordinary chondrites collected over a 6.8 km2 area located in the Catalina Dense Collection ...

Microbial Endolithic Community at Meteor Crater

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Postimpact recovery and evolution in response to climate changes produced a modern ecosystem at Meteor Crater dominated by a grassland and woodland of piñon and juniper, which has been used to evaluate floral and megafaunal consequences of impact cratering during the Phanerozoic Eon of complex life.

Slope Stability Analysis and Soil Mechanical Properties of Impact Craters around the Lunar South Pole

Remote Sensing
Water ice has been found in the permanently shadowed regions of impact craters around the lunar South Pole, which makes them ideal areas for in situ exploration missions.
