Note:
SAMs 1.1.1; For this research project, Co-I group will benchmark and down-select the various Titan regolith simulants developed at UCF. Co-I Yu group, including a graduate student and two undergraduate students, will conduct various material property measurements for the microscopic material properties of the regolith analogs. In addition, Co-I Yu will work with Co-I McGuiggan and Co-I He to measure the microscopic material properties of Titan tholin samples to understand the properties and composition of Titan dune materials.
