Effect of oxygen ion irradiation on the visible, infrared, and Raman spectra of Phobos candidate materials: implications on the space weathering by Martian atmosphere-derived ions

Abstract The origin of Martian satellites is still under debate. Nevertheless, such information could give insights into the evolution of the Martian system and planetary formation processes. To address these questions, MMX (Martian Moons eXploration) will conduct spectroscopy (v...
