The Radiation Impact of Solar Energetic Particle Events on the Moon: A Statistical Study Using Data‐Based Modeling Results
Bailiang Liu + Jingnan Guo + Mikhail Igorevich Dobynde ...
The Moon lacks a global magnetic field and atmosphere, leaving its surface been directly exposed to high‐energy cosmic radiation. Sporadic Solar Particle Events are...

Lunar Nearside‐Farside Mare Basalt Asymmetry: The Combined Role of Global Crustal Thickness Variations and South Pole‐Aitken (SPA) Basin‐Induced Lithospheric Thic
James W Head + Laura Lark + Lionel Wilson ...
Lunar mare basalts represent melting of mantle material, buoyant ascent in dikes, and eruption onto <20% of the surface. Global mare distribution is distinctly asymmetrical,...
