MNRAS, 2019 483, L80, 2018 Each of the giant planets within the Solar System has large moons but none of these moons have their own moons (which we call ${\it submoons}$). By analogy with studies of moons around short-period exoplanets, we investigate the tidal-dynamical stability of submoons.

Implications of surface roughness in models of water desorption on the Moon [PDF]
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021 The observed presence of water molecules in the dayside lunar regolith was an unexpected discovery and remains poorly understood. Standard thermophysical models predict temperatures that are too high for adsorbed water to be stable.

Sun vs Moon in the Mythopoetic Picture of the World of the Udmurt Bilingual Poet Vyacheslav Ar-Sergi
Polylinguality and Transcultural Practices, 2023 The Russian-language creativity of national authors is one of the most relevant topics of modern research. The issue of the preserving their identity in a different language field is complex and is ambiguously covered in the scientific literature.

In Situ Geochronology for the Next Decade: Mission Designs for the Moon, Mars, and Vesta [PDF]
The Planetary Science Journal, 2021 Geochronology is an indispensable tool for reconstructing the geologic history of planets, essential to understanding the formation and evolution of our solar system. Bombardment chronology bounds models of solar system dynamics, as well as the timing of

Age and composition of young basalts on the Moon, measured from samples returned by Chang’e-5
Science, 2021 Description Sample return shows late lunar volcanism Measuring physical samples of Solar System bodies in the laboratory provides more information than is possible from remote sensing alone.

The Planetary Science Journal, 2022 Moderately volatile elements (MVEs) are depleted and isotopically fractionated in the Moon relative to Earth. To understand how the composition of the Moon was established, we calculate the equilibrium and kinetic isotopic fractionation factors ...

Collision Chains among the Terrestrial Planets. III. Formation of the Moon [PDF]
The Planetary Science Journal, 2021 In the canonical model of Moon formation, a Mars-sized protoplanet “Theia” collides with proto-Earth at close to their mutual escape velocity v esc and a common impact angle ∼45°.

Yearling proportion correlates with habitat structure in a boreal forest landbird community [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Landbird vital rates, such as productivity and adult survivorship, can be estimated by modeling mist-netting capture data. The proportion in which an adult breeding bird is 1 year of age (a “yearling”), however, has been studied only minimally in a few ...

Generating and storing power on the moon using in situ resources
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part G: Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 2021 The Moon Village and similar concepts are strongly reliant on in situ resource utilisation (ISRU). There is great interest in harvesting solar power using locally leveraged in situ resources as an essential facet of in situ infrastructure. Traditionally,
