英文摘要Among recent lunar orbiters, only the Chinese Chang'E-1 (CE-1) was equipped with a passive microwave radiometer (MRM) to measure the natural microwave emission from the lunar surface. The microwave emission, characterized by a frequency-dependent brightness temperature (TB), is related to the physical temperature and dielectric properties of the lunar surface. By measuring the brightness temperature at different frequencies, detailed thermal behavior and properties of the lunar surface can be retrieved. Using CE-1's microwave data, we present here a set of microwave maps of the Moon constructed through a rescaling of TB to noontime or midnight. The adopted processing technique helps to reduce the effect of mixing up the temporal and spatial variations introduced by the satellite's localized measurements which cover different locations of the globe at different lunar local times. The resulting maps show fine structures unseen in previous microwave maps that disregarded the local time effect. We discussed the new features revealed and their possible connections with the lunar geology. Crown Copyright (c) 2012 Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
