Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 153-168., 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.

Predicted Diurnal Variation of the Deuterium to Hydrogen Ratio in Water at the Surface of Mars Caused by Mass Exchange with the Regolith [PDF]
, 2019 Regolith on Mars exchanges water with the atmosphere on a diurnal basis and this process causes significant variation in the abundance of water vapor at the surface. While previous studies of regolith-atmosphere exchange focus on the abundance, recent in-

Gas-Driven Regolith-Sampling Strategy for Exploring Micro-Gravity Asteroids
IEEE Access, 2020 Small celestial bodies contain abundant scientific information to understand the origin and evolution of the solar system. The acquisition and analysis of regolith sample is the most direct and effective way to explore the geological construction of ...

The collisional evolution of undifferentiated asteroids and the formation of chondritic meteoroids [PDF]
, 2016 Most meteorites are fragments from recent collisions experienced in the asteroid belt. In such a hyper-velocity collision, the smaller collision partner is destroyed, whereas a crater on the asteroid is formed or it is entirely disrupted, too.

The importance of Phobos simulants: a review on our current knowledge
Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2023 Phobos, a satellite of Mars, was successfully studied by flyby, orbiter, and landing missions to the Red Planet, but several questions remain about its origin, composition, and relationship to Mars.

Hypotheses for near-surface exchange of methane on Mars [PDF]
, 2016 The Curiosity rover recently detected a background of 0.7 ppb and spikes of 7 ppb of methane on Mars. This in situ measurement reorients our understanding of the Martian environment and its potential for life, as the current theories do not entail any ...
