Characterization of lunar crust with moon mineralogy mapper data

Characterization of lunar crust with moon mineralogy mapper data

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) === This dissertation has three main focuses: (1) identify the distribution of a new rock type (Mg-spinel lithology) on the Moon and explore the likely petrogenesis of Mg-spinel; (2) investigate the presence of olivine in the crater central p...
