KAGUYA Observation of Luna exosphere

(Osaka Univ.)
oKentaro Terada, Nishihira Ryusei, Shoichiro Yokota, Kohei Fukuda

KAGUYA was the second Japanese lunar orbiter, which launched in 2007. So far, a mass spectrometer onbord Kaguya revealed an ionized lunar sodium and potassium exosphere, terrestrial oxygen stripped from the Earth by Solar wind and global emissions of indigenous carbon ions from the Moon. We will review them and report our new insights into the lunar exosphere.
