    Heterogeneous phase reactions of Martian volatiles with putative regolith minerals

    The chemical reactivity of several minerals thought to be present in Martian fines is tested with respect to gases known in the Martian atmosphere. In these experiments, liquid water is excluded from the syste...

    Zur chemie der marsoberfläche

    Analyses of 13 samples of Martian surface materials with the Viking X-ray fluorescence spectrometers show SiO2 similar to that of terrestrial mafic rocks, whereas Fe2O3, Cl, and S are higher and Al2O3, K2O, Rb, S...

    Use of the Soft X-Ray Spectrograph and the Electron-Probe Microanalyzer for Determination of Elements Carbon through Iron in Minerals and Rocks

    The major elements in common rocks are of low atomic number, but analyses of high precision are possible by soft X-ray spectrography if several grams of rock sample are available. The electron-probe microanaly...

    Soft and Very Soft Fluorescence Analysis: Spectrographic and Electronic Modifications for Optimum, Automated Results

    The use of soft X-ray sources (designed by B. L. Henke, Pomona College) in a commercial vacuum spectrograph requires modifications in the optic path dependent upon the wavelength region being considered. Chang...
