Nanoscale characterization of space weathering in lunar samples by A. M. Grice, P. C. Stancil, M. Ghafariasl, S. Singh, S. Gamage, M. J. Schaible, Y. Abate, K. Lang, T. M. Orlando

“…Analysis of two sample fragments: an ilmenite basalt (12016) and an impact melt breccia (15445) show evidence of intrinsic or delivered Nd3+ and an amorphous silica glass component on exterior surfaces, whereas intrinsic Cr3+ and/or trapped electron states are limited to interior surfaces. Spatially localized 1050 cm−1/935 cm−1 band ratios in Nano-FTIR hyperspectral maps may further reflect impact-induced shock nanostructures, while shifts in silicate band positions indicate accumulated radiation damage at the nanoscale from prolonged space weathering due to micrometeorites, solar wind, energetic x-rays and cosmic ray bombardment. …”
