Accumulation of Dust on a Surface and the Subsequent Formation of Compact Aggregate Piles

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Dust aggregation is a prominent topic in space physics, yet the accumulation of dust on surfaces in airless environments remains poorly understood. It is commonly assumed that, during the initial stages of dust deposition, particles spread uniformly to form a monolayer.

Geologic History of the Mons Malapert and Mons Mouton Regions Near the Lunar South Pole: Basis for Future Exploration

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract This study presents a 1:100,000 scale geologic map of the region encompassing Mons Mouton, Mons Malapert, and Cabeus crater, highlighting the region's geologic diversity. Based on location and topography, Mons Mouton and Mons Malapert are interpreted as remnant massifs of the South Pole‐Aitken (SPA) basin rim.

Corinto: A Young, Extensively Rayed Crater That Produced a Billion Secondaries on Mars

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Corinto crater is a fresh, 13.9 km diameter impact crater in Elysium Planitia that produced one of the most extensive systems of thermally distinct rays and secondary craters on Mars, extending up to ∼2,000 km and covering a nearly 180° arc. It is the youngest crater of its size on Mars and impacted between 0.1 and 2.5 Ma into Early Amazonian ...

Parameter Estimation of Lunar Regolith from Lunar Penetrating Radar Data

open access: yesSensors, 2018
Parameter estimation of the lunar regolith not only provides important information about the composition but is also critical to quantifying potential resources for lunar exploration and engineering for human outposts.

The Boulder‐Rich Blocky Unit of the Western Jezero Upper Fan: Discriminating Olivine and Pyroxene Compositions and Constraining Provenance

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The boulder‐rich unit of the Upper Western Fan in Jezero crater, Mars is the youngest preserved unit of the fan stratigraphy. Understanding boulder compositions, distribution, and textures is critical for constraining their emplacement, provenance, and the depositional history of the Western fan.

Antum Crater: A Window Into Ganymede's Icy Evolution

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Located within the extensive dark terrain of Marius Regio, in the anti‐Jovian trailing quadrant of Ganymede, Antum crater is marked by dark‐rayed ejecta that obscure older features and reshape the surrounding landscape. This study investigates Antum and its geological context using optical and infrared data from the Voyager and Galileo ...
