The cause of the hot anomaly is one of the important scientific aims of the current lunar studies. In this study, aimed at a rock-related hot anomaly revealed by the Diviner thermal infrared data, the brightness temperature (TB) derived from the Chang'e-2 microwave sounder (CELMS) data is employed to evaluate its thermophysical features of the regolith. According to the TB performances, the ilmenite-rich material is identified in the region. Thus, we denied the rock influence and ascribed the region as a potential cryptomare. This study provides a new way to evaluate the thermophysical features of the lunar regolith with the CELMS data. |
