The thermal properties of ice-rich regolith on Mars, the Moon, and other bodies is currently poorly known. Thermal conductivity (and thermal diffusivity) are strongly dependent on the geometry assumed by pore-filling ice between regoith grains. On Mars, and other bodies with atmospheres below the triple point of water, ice may assume a distinct geometry from icy soils on Earth where melting is ubiquitous. Here we present new laboratory data of thermal properties of icy regolith analogs created by vapor diffusion and ice deposition under Martian atmospheric conditions.
