Scientific paper

We have combined Hyperspectral Imager (HySI) data from Chandrayaan-1 mission with SMART-1 Infrared Spectrometer (SIR) data to study the composition of the central peak of the Tycho crater at high spatial and spectral resolution. Combining the spectral responses of HySI and SIR, it is possible to completely characterize the 1-μm and 2-μm absorption features of major lunar minerals. Here we present the HySI-SIR combined spectra from the central peak of Tycho. Pyroxene-bearing lithologies have been identified from the crater central peak. From the present study, it can be concluded that the central peak of Tycho is predominantly basaltic in composition.
