Demagnetization signatures of lunar impact craters

We investigate the crustal magnetic signatures of lunar craters using Lunar Prospector (LP) electron reflectometer data. Craters of all ages often have associated magnetic lows, showing that crustal fields were present even in pre-Nectarian times (≳3.9 Ga). Magnetic lows extend to ∼2–4 crater radii,...
