Thermal Studies of Planetary Surfaces [PDF]
Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1981 Ground-based and spacecraft observations of planets, satellites, and asteroids in the thermal infrared have provided a wealth of information on planetary temperatures, dimensions, and surface properties. Internal heat sources have been revealed for Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune, and active volcanism on Io has been discovered and monitored.

Optical Constants of Martian Dust Analogs at UV–Visible–Near-infrared Wavelengths
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023 We present an advanced light-scattering model to retrieve the optical constants of three Martian dust analogs: Johnson Space Center regolith simulant, Enhanced Mojave Mars Simulant, and Mars Global Simulant.

Hybrid Animism: The Sensing Surfaces Of Planetary Computation [PDF]
, 2022 This article proposes to examine animism through the perspective provided by a notion of immanent matter drawn on process philosophy (Spinoza, Deleuze and Guattari), and quantum physics (Bohm, Rovelli).

Polarimetry of Water Ice Particles Providing Insights on Grain Size and Degree of Sintering on Icy Planetary Surfaces [PDF]
, 2018 The polarimetry of the light scattered by planetary surfaces is a powerful tool to provide constraints on their microstructure. To improve the interpretation of polarimetric data from icy surfaces, we have developed the POLarimeter for ICE Samples ...

Emplacement of penetrators into planetary surfaces [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 1996 We present experimental data and a model for the low‐velocity (subsonic, 0–1000 m/s) penetration of brittle materials by both solid and hollow (i.e., coring) penetrators. The experiments show that penetration is proportional to momentum/frontal area of the penetrator.
