    Lunar and Planetary Science Conference 2026 (LPSC)

    Our team presented one of our current projects at the 57th edition of the Lunar and Planetary Science Conference in Houston, Texas. In this work, we presented a numerical model to simulate water migration and stability in the Moon’s regolith, using heat and mass transport equations with simplified adsorption physics to improve computational efficiency. A…

    The Project Repository Journal article

    We are happy to announce our first project publication on the Project Repository Journal. The article presents the VOLARIS project, which combines laboratory experiments and numerical modelling to investigate how physical, chemical, and thermal processes drive the migration, stability, and distribution of water on and beneath the lunar surface. By accounting for factors such as…

    European Lunar Symposium 2025 (ELS)

    Our team presented the first results of VOLARIS at the European Lunar Symposium in Münster, Germany. The poster investigates how lunar regolith surface roughness and particle shape control micro-shadowing, a key factor governing local temperature variations and thus the stability and migration of water on the Moon, using 3D surface scans of regolith simulants combined…
