Numerical Investigation of Lunar Basin Formation Constrained by Gravity Signature

Numerical Investigation of Lunar Basin Formation Constrained by Gravity Signature

Impact basins on the Moon can serve as a benchmark for timing and intensity of the impact flux in the inner solar system. The basin morphology and morphometry depend on impactor size, mass, and velocity as well as the thermal state of the lunar lithosphere which is a function of the cooling history....
