Note on the nonuniform cooling behavior of the eclipsed moon

Lunar rocks and thermal anomalies

“…A number of attempts have been made to explain the existence of thermal anomalies in some of the large bright-rayed craters on the moon [Saari et al, 1966;Winter, 1966Winter, , 1967Fudali, 1966Fudali, , 1967. Several models concerning the effects of lunar surface roughness have been proposed [Bastin, 1965;Winter, 1965;Buhl et al, 1968b].…”
