Exotic Nanophase Iron as a New Agent for Space Weathering on the Moon

Nanophase iron (np-Fe) particles in space-weathered lunar regolith are widely concerning as they can change the spectral, chemical, and physical properties of lunar soils. These np-Fe particles were previously believed to be produced from lunar surface materials by space weathering processes, while...
