Petrology and geochemistry of LaPaz Icefield 02205: A new unique low-Ti mare-basalt meteorite
- M. Anand, M. Anand, +4 authors S. Tanikawa
- Geology
- 2006
LaPaz Icefield 02205 (LAP 02205) is a new low-Ti mare-basalt meteorite that was discovered in the LaPaz Ice Field in Antarctica. This is the first crystalline lunar basalt in the US Antarctic… Expand
The mercury imaging X-ray spectrometer (MIXS) on BepiColombo
- G. W. Fraser, J. Carpenter, +45 authors S. Whitehead
- Physics
- 2010
The Mercury Imaging X-ray Spectrometer (MIXS) on the BepiColombo Mercury Planetary Orbiter (MPO) will measure fluorescent X-ray emission from the surface of Mercury in the energy range 0.5–7.5 keV,… Expand
Silicon isotope variations in the inner solar system: Implications for planetary formation, differentiation and composition
- Thomas Zambardi, Thomas Zambardi, +6 authors M. Anand
- Geology
- 15 November 2013
Abstract Accurate and precise Si isotope measurements were obtained using magnesium doping and high-resolution plasma source mass spectrometry for samples representative of the Earth, as well as… Expand
The abundance, distribution, and isotopic composition of Hydrogen in the Moon as revealed by basaltic lunar samples: Implications for the volatile inventory of the Moon
- R. Tartèse, M. Anand, +5 authors Y. Sano
- Geology
- 1 December 2013
Abstract In this study we have measured the OH contents and D/H ratios in apatite grains in lunar basalts. These new data considerably expand the limited dataset published so far. The data presented… Expand
Lunar basalt chronology, mantle differentiation and implications for determining the age of the Moon
- J. F. Snape, A. Nemchin, +10 authors K. H. Joy
- Geology
- 1 October 2016
Despite more than 40 years of studying Apollo samples, the age and early evolution of the Moon remain contentious. Following the formation of the Moon in the aftermath of a giant impact, the result… Expand
The oxygen isotope composition, petrology and geochemistry of mare basalts: Evidence for large-scale compositional variation in the lunar mantle
- L. J. Hallis, L. J. Hallis, +5 authors S. Russell
- Geology
- 1 December 2010
To investigate the formation and early evolution of the lunar mantle and crust we have analysed the oxygen isotopic composition, titanium content and modal mineralogy of a suite of lunar basalts. Our… Expand
Apatites in lunar KREEP basalts: The missing link to understanding the H isotope systematics of the Moon
- R. Tartèse, M. Anand, +4 authors I. A. Franchi
- Geology
- 1 April 2014
Recent re-analyses of lunar samples have undoubtedly measured indigenous water, challenging the paradigm of a “dry” Moon, and arguing that some portions of the lunar interior are as wet as some… Expand
Geology, geochemistry, and geophysics of the Moon: Status of current understanding
- R. Jaumann, R. Jaumann, +19 authors J. Oberst
- Geology
- 1 December 2012
The Moon is key to understanding both Earth and our Solar System in terms of planetary processes and has been a witness of the Solar System history for more than 4.5 Ga. Building on earlier… Expand
Petrology of igneous clasts in Northwest Africa 7034: Implications for the petrologic diversity of the martian crust
- A. R. Santos, C. Agee, +5 authors M. Anand
- Geology
- 15 May 2015
The martian meteorite Northwest Africa (NWA) 7034 was examined both petrographically and geochemically using several micro-beam techniques including electron probe microanalysis and secondary ion… Expand
Trace-element modelling of mare basalt parental melts: Implications for a heterogeneous lunar mantle
- L. J. Hallis, L. J. Hallis, M. Anand, M. Anand, S. Strekopytov
- Geology
- 1 June 2014
The heterogeneous-source model of mare basalt formation indicates that Lunar Magma Ocean (LMO) overturn produced an uneven mixture of early-formed olivine and pyroxene, and late-formed, ilmenite-rich… Expand
