About this document
Journal of Geophysical Research Planets - 2009 - Loeffler - Irradiation of Olivine by 4 Kev He Simulation of Space by callmelav99 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The study investigates the effects of 4 keV He+ ion irradiation on olivine, focusing on changes in near-infrared reflectance and surface chemical composition. Results indicate that irradiation leads to spectral reddening and attenuation of Fe-3d absorption bands, correlating with the formation of metallic iron, which is a key factor in space weathering. The findings suggest that the solar wind contributes to space weathering more rapidly than micrometeorite impacts, with implications for understanding the s
