    Vibration effects on lunar regolith simulants depend on particle size and direction

    What the study found The simulants showed different convective behavior depending on particle size and whether vibrations were vertical or horizontal. Vertical vibrations strengthened convective motion as average particle size increased, while horizontal vibrations generally produced stronger convection as average particle size decreased. Why the authors say this matters The study suggests this matters because…
