(Some comes from prospectors who pan the Tigris in the summertime).
Those who had not been so successful heard about reports from prospectors of abundant silver deposits further west, over the Divide.
Extracted ion chromatograms were generated from precursor peptide masses, and theoretical masses calculated from Protein Prospector were compared to observed masses to calculate ppm mass error.
Whistler waves have been observed around Moon from Lunar Prospector in the frequency range 0.4 4 Hz (Halekas et al. 2006 and from Kaguya in the frequency range 0.1 10 Hz (Nakagawa et al. 2011; Tsugawa et al. 2011, 2012).
The Oscar-winner's next role is something of a departure from oil prospector Daniel Plainview – he's the star of Steven Spielberg's forthcoming Lincoln (out 25 January), a biopic of Abraham Lincoln's battle to end slavery.
Black contours in the centre show the magnetic field magnitude at 30 km altitude obtained from Lunar Prospector data, with lines for 5, 15, and 25 nT.
From Lunar Prospector, the whistler waves were observed on the dayside, outside the lunar wake, and suggested a possible link of solar wind interaction with lunar magnetic anomalies as the source (Halekas et al. 2006).
More recently, measurements from Lunar Prospector, Kaguya, and Chandrayaan have shown that some of the stronger magnetic anomalies can at least partially shield the lunar surface from the solar wind flow (Lin et al., 1998; Halekas et al., 2008a; Saito et al., 2010; Wieser et al, 2010).
In the similar way as the interaction of solar wind with Earth's magnetic field results in the formation of magnetosphere which effectively shields the planet from the solar wind, the possibility that magnetic anomaly regions on Moon can form small-scale magnetospheres ("mini-magnetospheres") has been suggested from Lunar Prospector observations (Lin et al. 1998).
Initial analysis of the GRAIL Primary Mission data led to spherical harmonic models complete to degree and order 420 [ Zuber et al., 2013c] that improved on the pre-GRAIL gravity models derived from Lunar Prospector, Kaguya, and other historical data [ Konopliv et al., 2001; Matsumoto et al., 2010] by a factor of 3 to 4 in spatial resolution, and 3 to more than 5 orders of magnitude in quality.
