Determination of Tidal Response of the Moon with Fully Three Determination of Tidal Response of the Moon with Fully Three-dimensional Elastic and Density Structures Using a Perturbation Method by Chuan Qin B.S., University of Science and Technology of China, 2008 M.S., University of Colorado at Boulder, 2011 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Colorado in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Physics 2015 This thesis entitled: Determination of Tidal Response of the Moon with Fully Three-dimensional Elastic and Density Structures Using a Perturbation Method has been approved for the Department of Physics Shijie Zhong John Wahr Michael Ritzwoller Date The final copy of this thesis has been examined by the signatories, and we find that both the content and the form meet acceptable presentation standards of scholarly work in the above mentioned discipline. iii Qin, Chuan (Ph.D., Physics, Department of Physics) Determination of Tidal Response of the Moon with Fully Three-dimensional Elastic and Density Structures Using a Perturbation Method Thesis directed by Professor Shijie Zhong The Moon displays a number of hemispherically asymmetric (i.e., harmonic degree-1) features, including those in its topography, crustal thickness, mare volcanism, surface chemical compositions and deep seismicity distribution. These features suggest a long-wavelength (i.e., 3- D) structure in the Moon’s interiors, which may have resulted from long-term lunar dynamic evolution. In recent years, high precision measurements of the Moon’s gravity field and topography have been made possible by the advancement of space geodetic techniques. New theoretical tools that can use those measurements to constrain the Moon’s 3-D interior structure are needed. In this thesis, I present a new semi-analytical method based on a perturbation theory that calculates the elastic response of a terrestrial planet with 3-D interior structures to time-varying body tides. The 3-D structure is represented by small lateral heterogeneities in the elastic properties and density of the planet. The presence of the 3-D structure excites response modes to tidal force that are added to those from the 1-D reference state. In a spherical harmonic representation, that every eigenstructure in the lateral heterogeneities is characterized by its induced modes and their relative responses holds the theoretical basis for inversion studies. The perturbation method is applied to solving the tidal response of the Moon, in which harmonic degree-1 lateral heterogeneities are assumed predominant. The perturbation solutions have been interpreted and compared with those from a finite element method, thus verifying the correct implementation of the perturbation method. My perturbation method is optimizable for inversions and promises to provide constraints on the Moon’s long-wavelength interior structures, with improved tidal response measurements from the GRAIL mission and future lunar missions. iv Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my parents. v Acknowledgements It has been a long journey and I am so pleased that it has come to a happy ending. I would like to acknowledge all those who helped and supported me along the way. First and foremost, I would like to thank my advisor, Prof. Shijie Zhong, for offering me the opportunity to work in his geodynamics research group. It was my great honor to have worked with him in the past four and half years. Shijie always trusts my theoretical ability and technical skills, and let me work on many interesting geophysics projects. Without his consistent guidance and encouragement, I could not finish my PhD thesis with so many academic achievements. Shijie is a great mentor and has given me lots of good advice on how to actively pursue a successful career, from which I will benefit for my life. I want to in particular acknowledge my co-advisor and committee member, Prof. John Wahr, who was both a scientific giant and a great mentor. Prof. John Wahr passed away on the next day of my thesis defense. I was in deep sorrow for the loss of him. I was so grateful to John for his trust on my ability and his guidance on the theoretical part of my thesis. It would be my forever regret not being able to present my thesis work in front of him and acknowledge him in person. I personally take my thesis to commemorate him. I want to thank Prof. Michael Ritzwoller, Prof. Michael Calkins and Prof. David Brain for their time to serve as my committee members. Their valuable comments helped me improve my thesis. I thank Prof. Michael Ritzwoller for recognizing my ability in theoretical work. I also thank him for his lecturing on the theory of seismology and the interesting topic of ambient noise tomography. vi I would like to thank all my former and current colleagues in the geophysical groups on the 7th floor of Gamow Tower. It was great fun to discuss and work with them. Thank them all for helping me with my research programs and my thesis defense presentation. Next, I gratefully thank my parents and my family for their unconditional love and support. I owe to my parents for not being able to be with them for so many years. I love and miss them so much. I want to thank my girlfriend, Yang Gao. She is the most beautiful sunlight of my life, giving me so much energy to overcome the difficulties. She is so special to me and I cannot imagine my life without her. I love her. I also thank my best friends in the US and China, Heming Zhen, Hao Tu and Jiwei Liu, for all their encouragements. I acknowledge NSF (US-NSF 1114168) and NASA (NNX11AP59G) for their financial supports on my thesis work. Finally, I thank the University of Colorado at Boulder and the beautiful city of Boulder for providing the best environments and resources. I have already taken Boulder as my second hometown. I will love and care about this place for my whole life. vii Contents Chapter 1. Introduction ………………………………………………………………………………..1 1.1. Global asymmetries of the Earth’s Moon …………………………………………….2 1.2.

Abstract Impact cratering is an abrupt, spectacular process that occurs on any world with a solid surface. On Earth, these craters are easily eroded or destroyed through endogenic processes. The Moon and Mercury, however, lack a significant atmosphere, meaning craters on these worlds remain intact longer, geologically. In this thesis, remote-sensing techniques were used to investigate impact melt emplacement about Mercury’s fresh, complex craters. For complex lunar craters, impact melt is preferentially ejected from the lowest rim elevation, implying topographic control. On Venus, impact melt is preferentially ejected downrange from the impact site, implying impactor-direction control. Mercury, despite its heavily-cratered surface, trends more like Venus than like the Moon.

Despite the advances in our understanding of microbial ecology in the past decade, important questions remain regarding the link between microbial diversity and geochemical factors under these extreme conditions. This dissertation first investigates a series of hot springs with wide ranges of temperature (26-92oC) and pH (3.72-8.2) from the Tibetan Plateau in China and the Philippines. Within each region, microbial diversity and geochemical conditions were studied using an integrated approach with 16S rRNA molecular phylogeny and a suite of geochemical analyses. In Tibetan springs, the microbial community was dominated by archaeal phylum Thaumarchaeota

  • Comets, Asteroids, and Meteorites
    Comets, Asteroids, and Meteorites Clues to the Origin of the Solar System Is Pluto a Planet? Introduction • There is evidence that the small amounts of debris that we observe in our Solar System is a remnant of a previous era of intense bombardment that produced frequent impacts on all of the planets – the Late Heavy Bombardment (~4.1 billion years ago) • Moon and Mercury for example, testify to this episode of intense cratering. • Such bombardment was universal and hammered the Earth as well, later to be disguised by erosion and plate tectonics. • The survivors of this original space debris, still exist today, in the form of asteroids, comets, and meteoroids. The 1908 Tunguska Event • First proposed that the Tunguska event was caused by the collision between the Earth and a small comet. • not a reasonable explanation because an icy comet would have exploded too high in the atmosphere to produce the damage seen from the Tunguska event. • consistent with the Earth colliding with an 80-meter diameter, rocky meteoroid traveling at hypersonic speed, about 79,000 km/h. • Some particles consistent in composition with meteoritic dust were found embedded in tree resin at the impact site. • modeled the impact and found it consistent with the impact of a 70-meter diameter stony meteorite that exploded in the atmosphere. 1969 Chihuahua Mexico Event • In 1969 hundreds of people watched while an intense blue-white light crossed the night sky near Chihuahua, Mexico. • punctuated by an explosion that showered the ground with hundreds of rocks, carbonaceous chondrites, all fragments of what is now known as the Allende meteorite.

  • 1 the Lifecycle of Hollows on Mercury
    The Lifecycle of Hollows on Mercury: An Evaluation of Candidate Volatile Phases and a Novel Model of Formation. 1 1 2 3 M. S. Phillips , J. E. Moersch , C. E. Viviano , J. P. Emery 1Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, University of Tennessee, Knoxville 2Planetary Exploration Group, Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory 3Department of Astronomy and Planetary Sciences, Northern Arizona University Corresponding author: Michael Phillips ([email protected]) Keywords: Mercury, hollows, thermal model, fumarole. Abstract On Mercury, high-reflectance, flat-floored depressions called hollows are observed nearly globally within low-reflectance material, one of Mercury’s major color units. Hollows are thought to be young, or even currently active, features that form via sublimation, or a “sublimation-like” process. The apparent abundance of sulfides within LRM combined with spectral detections of sulfides associated with hollows suggests that sulfides may be the phase responsible for hollow formation. Despite the association of sulfides with hollows, it is still not clear whether sulfides are the hollow-forming phase. To better understand which phase(s) might be responsible for hollow formation, we calculated sublimation rates for 57 candidate hollow-forming volatile phases from the surface of Mercury and as a function of depth beneath regolith lag deposits of various thicknesses. We found that stearic acid (C18H36O2), fullerenes (C60, C70), and elemental sulfur (S) have the appropriate thermophysical properties to explain hollow formation. Stearic acid and fullerenes are implausible hollow-forming phases because they are unlikely to have been delivered to or generated on Mercury in high enough volume to account for hollows.
