A method of fiducial-value normalizing to leveling the global average atomic number of lunar surface calculated by orbital Gamma spectroscopy data

Abstract

Abstract As “banded structure” is a vexed question in orbital Gamma spectroscopy data inversion. In this paper, a new method to level the lunar global data of average atomic number by the fiducial-value in the stable composition circle is proposed. In order to verify the accuracy, the existing moon-sampling rock data as the “standard sample” and fast neutron data are also presented. The slope of the positive fit curve is 1.875 and the correlation coefficient is 0.72. And some geological characteristics, such as the structural boundaries and internal features of the Antarctic Aiken Basin, can identify obviously.
