Comparing Airfall Dust Coverages on Rock Targets and APXS Compositions by the MSL and MER Rovers: Implications for M2020 PIXL
Abstract
In situ microscopic images and elemental concentrations determined by Alpha Particle X-ray Spectrometers (APXS) onboard the MSL and MER Rovers represent complementary datasets to assess dust on rock surfaces and its effect on composition.
