Geology of the Kuiper quadrangle (H06), Mercury

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2022
The Kuiper quadrangle (H06) is located at the equatorial zone of Mercury and encompasses the area between 288°E – 360°E and 22.5°N – 22.5°S. Using the NASA MESSENGER data, we compiled a geological map of the quadrangle at a 1:3,000,000 scale. The mapping

Unraveling the Geologic History of Miranda’s Inverness Corona

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
Miranda is the only icy body whose surface is known to contain the enigmatic features called corona—ovoid to trapezoidal areas of deformation. In this work, we seek to constrain potential formation mechanisms for Inverness Corona, the youngest known ...
