Dwarf planet (1) ceres surface bluing due to high porosity resulting from sublimation

HIGHLIGHTS

• who: Stefan E. Schröder from the (DLR), Germany, University have published the research: Dwarf planet (1) Ceres surface bluing due to high porosity resulting from sublimation, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS
• what: It is the goal of this paper to demonstrate that such structures can form naturally and in large quantities under Ceres conditions. The authors show experiments in support of the hypothesis that the blue colour results from a high porosity of the surface, induced by sublimation of an ice-phyllosilicate mixture produced by impacts4. After completion, the authors determine the . . .
