Atahensik contains a high density of radial, oblique, and concentric fractures, the latter are inferred to be the youngest fractures. A high density of concentric fractures particularly occurs along the outer rise and indicates elastic downward bending of this part of the lithosphere in the later stage of corona formation. Along the steep inner slopes of Atahensik's arcuate troughs, large-scale faults are exposed that dip gently towards the corona center and crosscut all fractures. We propose that these low-angle faults were initially formed as thrust planes but subsequently became reactivated as low-angle normal faults, thereby exposing parts of their fault surfaces. Such faults have been identified not only along the arcuate troughs of Atahensik but also occur in Dali Chasma, northwest of Atahensik Corona.</p><p>A phenomenological formation model of large coronae is presented: corona initiation starts with radial fracturing, which is caused by the dike emplacement and thermal uplift of the corona center due to the rise of a hot asthenospheric mantle plume. Uplift and lateral plume spreading steepen the outer rim of the uplift and cause intense radial fracturing of a central volcanic edifice and the corona's outer rim. This intermediate stage is preserved in several less-evolved coronae such as Didilia and Pavlova Coronae. The fractured ridge thrusts outward onto an intact and cooler lithosphere along strongly localized thrust planes. The overthrusted, cooler lithosphere is elastically bent downward and forms arcuate troughs and associated outer rises with numerous concentric fractures along their crest line. The fractured ridge annulus of the corona is supported by the intact and thickened lithosphere surrounding the corona. The present morphology of Atahensik Corona indicates subsequent subsidence in its central part due to declining plume activity and reduced thermal buoyancy. Reactivation of the thrusts as low-angle normal faults results from the subsidence of the corona interior, a gravitational instability of the elevated corona annulus, and a lack of shortening. The evolutionary sequence derived on the basis of structural data is in agreement with geodynamic models on corona formation involving a bending lithosphere at the plume margin.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":20054,"journal":{"name":"Planetary and Space Science","volume":"250 ","pages":"Article 105955"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0032063324001193/pdfft?md5=a6df3ff59578d8da422206fcaaebef40&pid=1-s2.0-S0032063324001193-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142088697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results from the SAM and SHERLOC on Curiosity and Perseverance, respectively, support the detection of lean organic matter (at ppb-ppm levels) in the top surface samples, although the source(s) and preservation mechanisms are still ambiguous. Perseverance is currently exploring a fluvio-lacustrine system at Jezero crater and may explore an ancient volcanic terrain after exiting the crater. As Perseverance would collect samples for potential return to Earth, preparation is needed for sample return efforts through various means including i) the detection of trace organic compounds in various matrices, ii) validation of compounds identified by Martian rovers, and iii) better understanding of mechanisms of their production on Mars. On these returned samples, the community may be able to resolve the timing of organic matter formation and refine hypotheses regarding organic preservation in Martian soils despite the presence of numerous oxidants, salts, and pH-temperature intra and inter-site variations that are less conductive to long-term preservation of organic matter. For instance, acidic conditions promote clay catalyzed isomerization, but seem to benefit for the fatty acid preservation producing organic-salts or favoring salt dissolution in the matrix to protect organic compounds from radiations and water alteration. With a similar aim, we selected samples from Yellowstone National Park hot springs and silica sinters as analogs to locations visited by Curiosity and Perseverance or – in the future – Rosalind Franklin rover. The hot springs in this study developed over hundreds to thousands of years, providing optimal conditions (&lt;em&gt;i.e.,&lt;/em&gt; matrix composition, temperature, pH) of preservation for organic molecules, extremophilic and mesophilic cells.

The planned suite of instruments onboard such a mission are expected to provide disk-integrated spectra with moderate spectral resolution and signal-to-noise (SNR). Although the detection and characterization of Earth-like exoplanets remains the primary focus of such a mission, land planets with limited available water, such as Mars, may be much more common. Mars-like exoplanets, therefore, are an equally significant set of targets when investigating the diverse climatologies and potential habitability of other worlds, especially if our own Solar System is any indication of planetary diversity. In this study, we constrain the direct imaging sensitivity requirements for observing and characterizing Mars-like exoplanets with the goal of informing future telescope design and mission planning. Employing an instrument noise model simulating a coronagraph-equipped, space-based telescope, spatially- and spectrally-resolved synthetic observations of Mars are produced. We evaluate the direct imaging sensitivity requirements across a range of wavelengths, from the ultraviolet (UV) to near-infrared (near-IR), to enable the spectral characterization of key atmospheric and surface features from disk-integrated reflectance spectra. Detectability at a given SNR is assessed through optical wavelength integration times for a range of phase angles, host star spectral types, and levels of atmospheric dustiness. Our results indicate that a Decadal-recommended space telescope featuring an aperture of 6-m is likely only proficient in detecting Mars-like exoplanets around K-type stars located within a 10 parsec (pc) radius from Earth. Furthermore, we demonstrate that when integrating over visible and near-IR wavelengths, required exposure times to detect such a planet are reasonable, especially near full phase angles. In the context of upcoming and proposed observatories, such as the Habitable Exoplanet Observatory (HabEx) and Large UV/Optical/IR Surveyor (LUVOIR), our findings provide valuable insights into the direct imaging capabilities and optimal observational strategies needed for detecting and studying Mars-like exoplanets.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":20054,"journal":{"name":"Planetary and Space Science","volume":"250 ","pages":"Article 105944"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141993323","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study hypothesizes that these cracks result from the volumetric shrinkage of clay fabric due to dehydration and salinity fluctuations in ancient Martian lakes. The research aims to quantify the shrinkage of terrestrial simulants with varying mineral compositions analogous to those found at Gale Crater and Jezero Crater under diverse desiccation conditions. By simulating Martian regolith using the Rocknest soil simulant and examining historical aqueous conditions through sedimentary rock analogs, this study provides new insights into Martian geological structures. The extent and rate of shrinkage in simulant samples were quantified using ImageJ, while strain localization and propagation were measured using the Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique until full desiccation crack patterns developed. Laboratory testing revealed that desiccation cracks tend to form polygonal patterns, which are patently similar to the polygonal patterns observed in some regions of Mars. However, not all simulants produced visible cracks, with some producing linear rather than polygonal patterns. Key findings indicate that higher temperatures result in wider and deeper cracks, while lower temperatures decrease crack density and length. Increased initial water content leads to more extensive cracking, with higher crack density and length per unit area. Sodium chloride and sodium sulfate significantly impact desiccation cracking, with low concentrations stabilizing the soil and high concentrations promoting extensive cracking. Smectite-rich samples exhibit extensive cracking, and tensile strain distribution during evaporation is non-uniform, influencing crack development based on sample properties and drying conditions. These insights enhance our understanding of polygonal crack formation on Mars, improving Mars sample return missions and informing the design of robust exploration equipment.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":20054,"journal":{"name":"Planetary and Space Science","volume":"248 ","pages":"Article 105933"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141593590","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By sampling plume material, the Cassini spacecraft found evidence of ongoing water-rock reactions between the silicate interior and the subsurface ocean. These data showed that these reactions provide a source of bioessential elements to the ocean, making Enceladus one of the leading astrobiological targets in our Solar System. Understanding these water-rock reactions is critical in understanding the potential habitability of Enceladus. To study these reactions experimentally, a chemical simulant to represent the contemporary silicate interior of Enceladus has been designed. Based on the available interpretations of Cassini data about the density, chemical composition, and aqueous alteration of the interior, the chosen starting point for the simulant is a CI chondrite. However, Enceladus is still undergoing active aqueous alteration, thus its silicate mineral assemblage cannot have reached the fully altered assemblage seen in a CI chondrite. To account for this, adaptations have been made to a CI chondrite mineral assemblage, extrapolating back to an assemblage of less aqueously altered minerals whilst maintaining the same chemical composition in terms of major oxide phases. Thus, the chemical and mineralogical composition of this simulant represents a best estimate of the silicate components in the ongoing water rock interactions on Enceladus today.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":20054,"journal":{"name":"Planetary and Space Science","volume":"248 ","pages":"Article 105934"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-07-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0032063324000989/pdfft?md5=ec206c3a8d3bac236ce8245834ef160b&pid=1-s2.0-S0032063324000989-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141593588","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
