Thermal Stability of Water Ice in Ceres' Craters: The Case of Juling Crater

Raponi, A.; Tosi, F.; De Sanctis, M. C. +4 more

Ice thermal stability on the surface of the dwarf planet Ceres is an important issue linked to the Herschel observations of water vapor around Ceres. One of these surficial ice deposits is located within the 20-km crater Juling (35°S, 168°E). The study of water ice exposure in this specific crater is particularly interesting because it has been ob…
