Physics

Moon:Electric Conductivity

Scientific paper

Day-side lunar electromagnetic transfer function estimates of Hood, Herbert & Sonett are analysed using the linearized inverse theory of Backus & Gilbert. A smooth conductivity distribution exponentially increasing with depth in the range 260 - 1200 km is found to fit the data. The conclusions are compatible with the forward model calculations of Hood et al. Further calculations explore the compatibility of a silicate or metallic lunar core with the data. A metallic lunar core of radius 438 km is allowed but not required.
