A comprehensive Raman Spectroscopic analysis of Apollo returned rock samples

This comparison shows the Raman spectroscopic (scattering) analysis of minerals found in rock and soil samples returned from Apollo lunar missions, including Apollo 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, and 17. The contributions added in the comparison have analyzed Apollo returned lunar rock samples using more than one spectroscopic method, but only the intensity peaks from Raman spectral analysis are discussed here. This comparison will help the researchers and students in Earth and lunar sciences to build a general knowledge of the polymorphs of minerals on the lunar surface.
