Atmospheric Dynamics of IR‐Active Particles Released From Mars' Surface

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Surface release of radiatively active particles, with high infrared‐ (IR‐)to‐visible extinction ratios, has been proposed as a method of warming Mars. However, to warm Mars using aerosols, particles released locally must disperse globally. Here we provide an initial reference study in a plume tracking, dry Martian atmospheric model to address ...

Solar Activity Dependence of the Dayside Lunar Surface Potential in the Terrestrial Magnetotail

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract On the dayside of the Moon, the surface potential is primarily determined by (a) photoelectron emission by solar radiation and (b) the ambient plasma environment. Both of these drivers have large variability, but the resulting variability of the lunar surface potential has not been fully characterized yet.

Photometry of Lunar Swirls in Comparison to Fresh Crater Ejecta

The Planetary Science Journal
Swirls are sinuous high-reflectance lunar surface features collocated with crustal magnetic anomalies. These bright features and their geographical relationship to magnetic anomalies have been studied for decades, although their cause remains unclear ...

Distinct element method for static and flow mobility characteristics of lunar regolith based on particle shape characteristics

Yantu gongcheng xuebao
Since it exhibits uniquely grain shape, physical and mechanical characteristics, the lunar regolith is extremely important for utilization of in-situ resources, selection of base station location and construction in lunar exploration.

Sintering lunar regolith pellets: a comparison of four samples from Apollo 11, 15, and 16

Materials Today Advances
Lunar regolith sintering is proposed as a technique to produce consolidated objects on the lunar surface from locally sourced materials. Understanding the sintering behaviour of real lunar regolith is necessary to optimise this process, however, due to ...

Experimental Evaluation of Lunar Regolith Settlement Caused by Ice Extraction

Aerospace
Water resources are essential to human exploration in deep space or the establishment of long-term lunar habitation. Ice discovered on the Moon may be useful in future missions to the lunar surface, necessitating the consideration of in situ resource ...
