Morphological characteristics of lunar craters with moderate depth/diameter ratio. II (0.12<d/D<0.15)
Abstract
The morphological characteristics of craters, the depth/diameter ratio of which is between 0.12 and 0.15, are discussed. Many small secondary craters belong to that class—results of low velocity impacts—as well as young craters created by low angle impacts. Revised values for the craters' selenographic coordinates are also presented.
