Assessing the shock state of the lunar highlands: Implications for the petrogenesis and chronology of crustal anorthosites
Abstract Our understanding of the formation and evolution of the primary lunar crust is based on geochemical systematics from the lunar ferroan anorthosite (FAN) suite. Recently, much effort has been made to understand this suite’s petrologic history to constrain the timing of crystallisation and to...
