The distribution and origin of smooth plains on Mercury
- B. Denevi, C. Ernst, P. Peplowski
- Geology
- 1 May 2013
Orbital images from the MESSENGER spacecraft show that ~27% of Mercury's surface is covered by smooth plains, the majority (>65%) of which are interpreted to be volcanic in origin. Most smooth plains…
SPACE WEATHERING OF ASTEROID SURFACES
- C. Chapman
- Physics, Geology
- 21 April 2004
▪ Abstract Visible and near-infrared spectra of reflected sunlight from asteroid surfaces exhibit features that hold the promise for identifying surface mineralogy. However, the very surfaces that…
RIVER AVULSIONS AND THEIR DEPOSITS
- C. Chapman, G. Cody, T. Haney
- Environmental Science
- 2005
■ Abstract Avulsion is the natural process by which flow diverts out of an established river channel into a new permanent course on the adjacent floodplain. Avulsions are primarily features of…
Widespread effusive volcanism on Mercury likely ended by about 3.5 Ga
- P. Byrne, L. Ostrach, S. Solomon
- Geology
- 28 July 2016
Crater size–frequency analyses have shown that the largest volcanic plains deposits on Mercury were emplaced around 3.7 Ga, as determined with recent model production function chronologies for impact…
Impact History of Eros: Craters and Boulders
- C. Chapman, W. Merline, P. Thomas, J. Joseph, A. Cheng, N. Izenberg
- Geology
- 2002
Abstract Preliminary measurements of craters and boulders have been made in various locations on Eros from images acquired during the first nine months of NEAR Shoemaker's orbital mission, including…
The Compositional Structure of the Asteroid Belt
- F. DeMeo, C. Alexander, K. Walsh, C. Chapman, R. Binzel
- Geology, Physics
- 16 June 2015
The past decade has brought major improvements in large-scale asteroid discovery and characterization with over half a million known asteroids and over 100,000 with some measurement of physical…

TLDR
Could the Lunar “Late Heavy Bombardment” Have Been Triggered by the Formation of Uranus and Neptune?
- H. Levison, L. Dones, C. Chapman, S. Stern, M. Duncan, K. Zahnle
- Physics, Geology
- 1 June 2001
We investigate the hypothesis that the so-called Late Heavy Bombardment (LHB) of the Moon was triggered by the formation of Uranus and Neptune. As Uranus and Neptune formed, which we assume occurred…
