Thickness of the Martian crust: Improved constraints from geoid-to-topography ratios (2004, methodology): “For the Moon, this has been done by using the seismically constrained crustal thickness beneath the Apollo 12 and 14 landing sites [cf. Khan and Mosegaard, 2002; Lognonné et al., 2003].”
Nonuniform cratering of the Moon and a revised crater chronology of the inner Solar System (2011, methodology): “Following the terminology of Marchi et al. (2009), we refer to this as a model production function.”
Asymmetric thermal evolution of the Moon (2012, background): “Here we assume a constant thickness of 40 km [Khan and Mosegaard, 2002; Lognonné et al., 2003; Wieczorek et al., 2013] and a thermal conductivity of kc = 1.5 W m–1 K–1 in order to account for the presence of low-conductivity megaregolith.”
Joint inversion of seismic and gravity data for lunar composition and thermal state (2007, methodology): “…the much increased computer capabilities over the last 25 yr, the Apollo lunar seismic data have become the focus of renewed interest, enabling the acquisition of previously unobtainable information (Khan et al. 2000; Khan & Mosegaard 2002; Lognonné et al. 2003; Bulow et al. 2005; Nakamura 2005).”
Lunar subsurface investigated from correlation of seismic noise (2005, methodology): “The data collected by the Apollo seismic network provided the basis for a number of studies of lunar seismicity and internal structure published during the 1970s, early 1980s, and again recently [Latham et al., 1973; Toksöz et al., 1974; Nakamura et al., 1982; Khan and Mosegaard, 2002; Lognonné et a”
“New” lunar meteorites: Implications for composition of the global lunar surface, lunar crust, and the bulk Moon (2005, methodology): “LognonnÈ et al. (2003) independently modeled the lunar seismic database and derived an even lower crustal thickness for the Apollo region of 30 ± 3 km.”
Water in the Moon's interior: Truth and consequences (2015, background): “Reanalysis of lunar seismic data (Khan et al., 2000; Lognonné et al., 2003; Garcia et al., 2011; Weber et al., 2011), as well as topographic and gravity constraints from the recent GRAIL mission (Wieczorek et al.”
