  • On the formation of the lunar mascons 
    Arkani-Hamed, Jafar (Pergamon Press, 1973)
    A new mascon hypothesis is proposed which accounts for: (1) the existence of lunar mascons for more than 3 b.y., (2) the evidence for extensive volcanic activity from 3.7 to 3.2 b.y. ago, (3) the existence of negative ...

    Srnka, L. J. (Pergamon Press, 1976)
    Acquisition of thermoremanent magnetization (TRM) in a lunar lithosphere which cooled in the presence of a hypothetical ancient lunar dipole field is studied using Runcorn's theorem and a range of lunar evolution models.
  • On the origin of mascons and moonquakes 
    Runcorn, S. K. (Pergamon Press, 1974)
