Доповiдi Нацiональної академiї наук України, 2023 The Ternuvate strata comprise metamorphic rocks that make up the Haichur arcuate structure, which is about 72 km long. Its western part lies within the Andriivka fault zone, which separates the Vovcha and Huliaipole blocks, while the eastern part is ...

Salt Distribution from Freezing Intrusions in Ice Shells on Ocean Worlds: Application to Europa
The Planetary Science Journal, 2023 Several icy moons and dwarf planets appear to have hosted subsurface liquid water. Liquid water intruding upwards into the icy outer shells of these worlds freezes, forming ice and (from ocean solutes) non-ice solids.

Ultra-compact imaging spectrometer for remote,in situ, and microscopic planetary mineralogy [PDF]
Journal of Applied Remote Sensing, 2014 The ultra-compact imaging spectrometer is a miniature imaging spectrometer that has been designed for compatibility with operation in a Martian environment. The spectrometer can be mated to a variety of front optics, both telescopic and microscopic. With a miniature telescope, it can serve as a rover mast instrument that surveys the surrounding area

Implications of Reactions Between SO2 and Basaltic Glasses for the Mineralogy of Planetary Crusts [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2019 AbstractBasalts are ubiquitous in volcanic systems on several planetary bodies, including the Earth, Mars, Venus, and Jupiter's moon Io, and are commonly associated with sulfur dioxide (SO2) degassing. We present the results of an experimental study of reactions between SO2 and basaltic glasses. We examined Fe‐free basalt, and Fe‐bearing tholeiitic and

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 263-304., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
