Description
This website contains the supplemental materials of the manuscript Magnetic Signatures of Lunar Impact Craters by Xi Yang and Mark Wieczorek that is published in Icarus.
Impact crater classification database provides the classifications of the magnetic signatures of lunar craters by the two analysts, using the lunar magnetic field models at the surface (Tsunakawa et al.,2015; Ravat et al., 2020) and 30 km altitude (Tsunakawa et al.,2015; Hood et al., 2021; Hood et al., 2022). The classifications using the synthetic models are also contained in this file.
Profiles (Figure 7) provides the data of azimuthally averaged magnetic field profiles used to generate Figure 7.
Impact crater summary images 1 (CC3D+PR3D+MR2D) provides the images that were used to classify the magnetic signatures of lunar craters using the magnetic field models at the surface. The synthetic models are generated using the Euler angle set 1. The magnetic signatures and topographies of complex craters and peak-ring craters are plotted by a range of three times the crater diameter, whereas the plotting range for the multi-ring craters is two times the diameter.
Impact crater summary images 1 (MR1D) provides the supplemental images that were used to classify the magnetic signatures of multi-ring craters which focus on the signatures within the main rim.
Impact crater summary images 2 (CC3D+PR3D+MR2D) and Impact crater summary images 2 (MR1D) provide the images that were used to classify the magnetic signatures of lunar craters using the magnetic field models at the surface. The synthetic models are generated using the Euler angle set 2.
Impact crater summary images 3 (CC3D+PR3D+MR2D) and Impact crater summary images 3 (MR1D) provide the images that were used to classify the magnetic signatures of lunar craters using the magnetic field model at 30 km latitude. The synthetic models are generated using the Euler angle set 1.
