We present the first results of Mars neutron sounding by FREND instrument onboard ESA's Trace Gas Orbiter data analysis. Neutron flux mapping is performed with high spatial resolution, which allows to match epithermal neutron flux variation with relief's geomorphological structures. Local regions with suppressed neutron flux indicate the presence …
