- Water in the Moon's interior: Truth and consequences (2015, background): “…will lead to formation of a magma disk in a planar geometry around the midplane, while the vapor phase of the disk is predicted to expand in a nearly spherical geometry enveloping both the Earth and the disk (Genda and Abe, 2003b; Pahlevan and Stevenson, 2007; Nakajima and Stevenson, 2014a).”

On the other hand, the core contains likely 3-8 wt% S, according to geophysical evidence based on seismic velocity and core density determinations (e.g., Weber et al., 2011; Garcia et al., 2011, Antonangeli et al., 2015). Such S contents can be achieved if some or all of th”
- The Origin of the Moon Within a Terrestrial Synestia (2018, background): “In our calculations a few weight percent of metal is precipitated at moderate pressures, which is consistent with the small size of the lunar core (Garcia et al., 2011; Matsuyama et al., 2016; Weber et al., 2011; Williams et al., 2014).”
- Lunar interior properties from the GRAIL mission (2014, background): “Since μ= ρVS 2, analysis of lunar seismic data for a band of periods near 1 s supplies information on the internal structure along with μ(r) at seismic periods [Goins et al., 1981; Nakamura, 1983; Weber et al., 2011; Garcia et al., 2011].”
- Asymmetric thermal evolution of the Moon (2012, background): “A recent seismic study suggests that the Moon might possess a solid inner core [Weber et al., 2011], but this remains subject to debate [Garcia et al., 2011].”
