Overview of the Chang'e-4 mission: Opening the frontier of scientific exploration of the lunar far side
Abstract China's Chang'e-4 (CE-4) mission is the first human lander/rover mission on the far
side of the Moon. Its probe is composed of a lander, rover, and the Queqiao relay satellite …

Particles and photons as drivers for particle release from the surfaces of the Moon and Mercury
Abstract The Moon and Mercury are airless bodies, thus they are directly exposed to the
ambient plasma (ions and electrons), to photons mostly from the Sun from infrared range all …

Deducing lunar regolith porosity from energetic neutral atom emission
The porosity of the upper layers of regolith is key to the interaction of an airless planetary
body with precipitating radiation, but it remains difficult to characterize. One of the effects that …
