Thermophysical Diversity of Young Lunar Crater Ejecta Revealed with LRO Diviner Observations

Thermophysical Diversity of Young Lunar Crater Ejecta Revealed with LRO Diviner Observations

Young (<1 Ga) craters on the Moon are known to host diverse mixtures of ejecta with varying spectral and physical properties. In this work, we examine 13 yr of bolometric surface temperature data from the Diviner Lunar Radiometer on board the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter over the ejecta blankets...
