Lunar plasma and electrostatic environment: numerical approach and its future prospects

Abstract: <p>Mission preparation for lunar exploration using landers has been rapidly increasing, and strong demand should arise toward precise understanding of the electrostatic environment. The lunar surface, which has neither a dense atmosphere nor a global magnetic field, gets charged electrically by the collection of surrounding charged particles of the solar wind or the Earth's magnetosphere. As a result of the charging processes, the surface regolith particles behave as "charged du… Show more
