Dr. Patrick Peplowski is a staff scientist at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory, where he is in involved with the development, testing, and operation of gamma-ray and neutron spectrometers studying Mercury, Mars’ moons, asteroids, and Saturn’s moon Titan. He is also heavily involved in efforts to improve the precision and accuracy of the nuclear reaction cross section data that are used to analysis the datasets from these missions.
This discussion highlights a recent measurement at NSRL and how this data can be applied to a planetary spectroscopy mission.
