Научные интересы
Научные интересы связаны с исследованием проблемы химической эволюции тел Солнечной системы. В частности, химическая модификация небесных тел происходит при их столкновениях друг с другом. Особое внимание уделяю проблеме столкновения комет с планетами и их спутниками (наиболее впечатляющий пример - столкновение кометы Шумейкеров-Леви 9 с Юпитером). Занимаюсь исследованием происхождения летучих соединений в полярных областях Луны.

Abstract
Chemical processes associated with meteoroid bombardment of Mercury are
considered. Meteoroid impacts lead to production of metal atoms as well as metal
oxides and hydroxides in the planetary exosphere. By using quenching theory, the
abundances of the main Na-, K-, Ca-, Fe-, Al-, Mg-, Si-, and Ti-containing
species delivered to the exosphere during meteoroid impacts were estimated.
Based on a correlation between the solar photo rates and the molecular constants
of atmospheric diatomic molecules, photolysis lifetimes of metal oxides and SiO
are estimated. Meteoroid impacts lead to the formation of hot metal atoms
(0.2-0.4 eV) produced directly during impacts and of very hot metal atoms (1-2
eV) produced by the subsequent photolysis of oxides and hydroxides in the
exosphere of Mercury. The concentrations of impact-produced atoms of the main
elements in the exosphere are estimated relative to the observed concentrations
of Ca, assumed to be produced mostly by ion sputtering. Condensation of dust
grains can significantly reduce the concentrations of impact-produced atoms in
the exosphere. Na, K, and Fe atoms are delivered to the exosphere directly by
impacts while Ca, Al, Mg, Si, and Ti atoms are produced by the photolysis of
their oxides and hydroxides. The chemistry of volatile elements such as H, S, C,
and N during meteoroid bombardment is also considered. Our conclusions about the
temperature and the concentrations of impact-produced atoms in the exosphere of
Mercury may be checked by the Messenger spacecraft in the near future and by
BepiColombo spacecraft some years later.

Abstract
A comparison between the abundances of major elements on the Moon determined
by Lunar Prospector gamma ray spectrometer and those in returned lunar samples
is performed. Lunar Prospector shows higher Mg and Al content and lower Si
content in western maria in comparison with the lunar sample collection. Lunar
Prospector overestimated the Mg content by about 20%. There are no elemental
anomalies at the lunar poles: this is additional evidence for the presence of
polar lunar hydrogen. Using Mg, Fe, and Al abundances, petrologic maps
containing information about the abundances of ferroan anorthosites, mare
basalts, and Mgrich rocks are derived. This approach is useful for searching for
cryptomaria and Mg-rich rocks deposits on the lunar surface. A search is
implemented for rare rock types (dunites and pyroclastic deposits). Ca-rich,
Al-low small-area anomalies are detected in the far side highlands.

Abstract
We analyze preliminary Lunar Prospector gamma-ray spectrometer data. Al-Mg
and Fe-Mg petrologic maps of the Moon show that Mg-rich rocks are located in
Mare Frigoris, the South Pole Aitken basin, and in some cryptomaria. Analysis of
distances of Lunar Prospector pixels from three end-member plane in Mg-Al-Fe
space reveals existence of Ca-rich, Al-low small-area anomalies in the farside
highlands. An Mg-Th-Fe petrologic technique can be used for estimation of
abundances of ferroan anorthosites, mare basalts, KREEP basalts, and Mg-rich
rocks.

Abstract
The results of recent observations of the nonthermal electromagnetic (EM)
emission at wavelengths of 2.5 cm, 13 cm, and 21 cm are summarized. After strong
impacts of meteorites or spacecrafts (Lunar Prospector) with the Moon's surface,
the radio emissions in various frequency ranges were recorded. The most
distinctive phenomenon is the appearance of quasi-periodic oscillations with
amplitudes of 3-10K during several hours. The mechanism concerning the EM
emission from a propagating crack within a piezoactive dielectric medium is
considered. The impact may cause the global acoustic oscillations of the Moon.
These oscillations lead to the crackening of the Moon's surface. The propagation
of a crack within a piezoactive medium is accompanied by the excitation of an
alternative current source. It is revealed that the source of the EM emission is
the effective transient magnetization that appears in the case of a moving crack
in piezoelectrics. The moving crack creates additional non-stationary local
mechanical stresses around the apex of the crack, which generate the
non-stationary electromagnetic field. For the cracks with a length of 0.1-1μm,
the maximum of the EM emission may be in the 1-10GHz range.

Abstract
The presence of volatiles near lunar poles is studied. The chemical
composition of a lunar atmosphere temporarily produced by comet impact is
studied during day and night. C-rich and long-period comets are insufficient
sources of water ice on the Moon. O-rich short-period comets deliver significant
amounts of H2O, CO2, SO2, and S to the Moon. An observable amount of polar
hydrogen can be delivered to the Moon by single impact of O-rich short-period
comet with diameter of 5 km in the form of water ice. The areas where CO2 and
SO2 ices are stable against the thermal sublimation are estimated as 300 and
1500 km2, respectively. If water ice exists in the 2 cm top regolith layer CO2
and SO2 ices can be stable in the coldest parts of permanently shaded craters.
The delivery rate of elemental sulfur near the poles is estimated as 106 g/year.
The sulfur content is estimated to be as high as 1 wt % in polar regions. The
SELENE gamma-ray spectrometer can detect sulfur polar caps on the Moon if the
sulfur content is higher than 1 wt %. This instrument can check the presence of
hydrogen and minerals with unusual chemical composition at the lunar poles.

Abstract
Preliminary analysis of middle resolution optical spectra of comet C/2000 WM1
(LINEAR) obtained on November 22, 2001 is given. The emission lines of the
molecules C2, C3, CN, NH2, H2O+ and presumably CO (Asundi and triplet bands),
C-2 were identified in these spectra. By analyzing the brightness distributions
of the C2, C3, CN emission lines along the spectrograph slit we determined some
physical parameters of these neutral molecules - the velocity of expansion of
molecules within the coma and their lifetimes. The Franck-Condon factors for the
CO Asundi bands and C-2 bands were calculated by using a Morse potential model.
