SELENE Alpha Ray Detector Event Data

Overview

Description

The primary target of Alpha-ray detector (ARD) is the alpha particles emitted by 222Rn and 210Po. 222Rn is produced by the decay of 238U and emanates from the lunar surface. It is trapped by the lunar gravity and decays with the half-life of 3.8 days emitting 5.490 MeV alpha particle.
