  • IAU Mercurian Nomenclature
    Appendix 1 IAU Mercurian Nomenclature 1. IAU Nomenclature Rules Since its inception in Brussels in 1919 [1], the International Astronomical Union (IAU) has gradually developed a planetary nomenclature system that has evolved from a purely classically based system into a quite so- phisticated attempt to broaden the cultural base of the names approved for planetary bodies and surface features. At present, name selection is guided by 11 rules (quoted verbatim below) in addition to conventions decided upon by nomenclature task groups for individual Solar System bodies. The general rules are as follows1: 1. Nomenclature is a tool and the first consideration should be to make it simple, clear, and unambiguous. 2. In general, official names will not be given to features whose longest di- mensions are less than 100 metres, although exceptions may be made for smaller features having exceptional scientific interest. 3. The number of names chosen for each body should be kept to a minimum. Features should be named only when they have special scientific inter- est, and when the naming of such features is useful to the scientific and cartographic communities at large. 4. Duplication of the same surface feature name on two or more bodies, and of the same name for satellites and minor planets, is discouraged. Duplications may be allowed when names are especially appropriate and the chances for confusion are very small. 5. Individual names chosen for each body should be expressed in the language of origin. Transliteration for various alphabets should be given, but there will be no translation from one language to another.

  • How Thick Are Mercury's Polar Water Ice Deposits?
    Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc. 000, 000–000 (0000) Printed 17 November 2016 (MN LATEX style file v2.2) How thick are Mercury’s polar water ice deposits? Vincent R. Eke1, David J. Lawrence2, Lu´ıs F. A. Teodoro3 1Institute for Computational Cosmology, Department of Physics, Durham University, Science Laboratories, South Road, Durham DH1 3LE, U.K. 2Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, Laurel, MD 20723, U.S.A. 3BAER, Planetary Systems Branch, Space Science and Astrobiology Division, MS: 245-3, NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA 94035-1000, U.S.A. 17 November 2016 ABSTRACT An estimate is made of the thickness of the radar-bright deposits in craters near to Mer- cury’s north pole. To construct an objective set of craters for this measurement, an automated crater finding algorithm is developed and applied to a digital elevation model based on data from the Mercury Laser Altimeter onboard the MESSENGER spacecraft. This produces a catalogue of 663 craters with diameters exceeding 4 km, northwards of latitude +55◦. A sub- set of 12 larger, well-sampled and fresh polar craters are selected to search for correlations between topography and radar same-sense backscatter cross-section. It is found that the typ- ical excess height associated with the radar-bright regions within these fresh polar craters is (50 ± 35) m. This puts an approximate upper limit on the total polar water ice deposits on Mercury of ∼ 3 × 1015 kg. 1 INTRODUCTION was that there was multiple scattering occurring within a low-loss medium such as water ice (Hapke 1990; Hagfors et al.

Paul Indelicato Laboratoire Kastler Brossel -Ecole Normale Supérieure, Département de Physique 24 Rue Lhomond, F-75231 Paris CEDEX 05 Université P. et M. Curie, Pyramide 14-24, Case 74, 4 place JussieuF-75252 Paris Cedex 05, France X-ray standards, i.e, X-ray line energies or wavelengths measured with the highest possible accuracy, have applications in many fields of physics. One can cite field as different as crystallography as well as medium energy particle physics. Current X-ray standards are based upon X-ray lines emitted by solid targets excited by electron bombardment or fluorescence. These lines are not very well suited for X-ray standards: they are broad and asymmetric because of the unavoidable presence of many vacancies (shake-off,…) and of auto-ionization. Their energy can only be obtained by direct measurement, and depends on the exact composition of the target surface (chemical shift) and on the instrumental resolution (because of the asymmetry). Their width is much larger than the resolution of the best spectrometers. Many known lines have been measured only once very long ago, in an uncontrolled environment. A complete survey of the current status of X-ray line energies and associated problems can be found in [1]. Several attempts have been made to remedy some or all of these problems and find better candidates. Recently low energy gamma rays have been advocated for such applications [2]. They are narrow transitions of nuclear origin, but are indeed difficult to manipulate (strong radioactive sources are needed), there are very few suitable lines, and the energy cannot be predicted.
