- CRaTER: The Cosmic Ray Telescope for the Effects of Radiation Experiment on the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Mission (2010, background): “There is evidence to suggest that a submicron dust population exists in the lunar exosphere at altitudes in excess of 100 km (Zook and McCoy, 1991), and it has been proposed that this population could have been electrostatically lofted by surface electric fields (Stubbs et al., 2006).”
- Lunar surface: Dust dynamics and regolith mechanics (2007, background): “high altitudes [Stubbs et al., 2006] with some possibly escaping the Moon’s gravity.”
- Mercury’s Weather-Beaten Surface: Understanding Mercury in the Context of Lunar and Asteroidal Space Weathering Studies (2014, background): “…lunar terminator show that submicrometer-sized grains can be levitated and transported tens of kilometers in altitude (e.g., Criswell 1973; McCoy and Criswell 1974; Rennilson and Criswell 1974; Zook and McCoy 1991; Halekas et al. 2002; Stubbs et al. 2006; Colwell et al. 2007; Glenar et al. 2012).”
- The lunar dust environment (2011, background): “A new simple model suggests that these could be particles with radii o10 nm lofted from the lunar surface by electrostatic forces (Stubbs et al., 2006).”
- Simulations of the photoelectron sheath and dust levitation on the lunar surface (2010, neutral): “[10] The dynamics and equilibria of charged and levitated dust particles above the lunar surface have been previously studied by a number of other models [Nitter and Havnes, 1992; Nitter et al., 1994, 1998; Colwell et al., 2005; Borisov and Mall, 2006; Stubbs et al., 2006; Farrell et al., 2007].”
