Wavelength Calibration for the LIBS Spectra of the Zhurong Mars Rover
China’s first Mars rover, Zhurong, landed on the southern region of Utopia Planitia, Mars, on 14 May 2021 (UTC). Zhurong is equipped with the Mars Surface Composition Detection Package (MarSCoDe), which analyzes the Martian surface’s material composition.

Hydrous Components of Dusty Surfaces Inferred From Zhurong In Situ Observations
Abstract The ubiquitous hydration features observed by Zhurong rover provided new insights into Mars aqueous paleoenvironments. However, the impact of the Martian dust was not previously discussed. Here, we conduct a joint analysis of the Multispectral Camera and Short‐Wave Infrared data to constrain the surface composition. The results show that these

Evidence for marine sedimentary rocks in Utopia Planitia: Zhurong rover observations. [PDF]
ABSTRACTDecades of research using remotely sensed data have extracted evidence for the presence of an ocean in the northern lowlands of Mars in the Hesperian (∼3.3 Ga), but these claims have remained controversial due to the lack of in situ analysis of the associated geologic unit, the Vastitas Borealis Formation (VBF).

Volatile Elements Characterized by MarSCoDe in Materials at Zhurong Landing Site
The study of volatile elements on the Martian surface is a critical way to explore the geological evolution history of Mars. Volatile elements such as hydrogen (H), sulfur (S), and chlorine (Cl) on the Martian surface act as proxies for the potential ...

Zhurong reveals recent aqueous activities in Utopia Planitia, Mars. [PDF]
The Mars’ climate is cold and dry in the most recent epoch, and liquid water activities are considered extremely limited. Previous orbital data only show sporadic hydrous minerals in the northern lowlands of Mars excavated by large impacts. Using the short-wave infrared spectral data obtained by the Zhurong rover of China’s Tianwen-1 mission, which ...

Estimation of surface water content at the Tianwen-1 Zhurong landing site [PDF]
China’s first Mars rover, Zhurong, successfully landed in the south of Utopia Planitia. The surface water content at the landing area can provide constraints on mineral formation conditions and help us better understand the evolution of the Martian ...
