Abstract
- Immature rays radiating from young craters haven't been exposed to these effects for long and still appear bright. Thus, there are compositional rays, immaturity rays, and combination rays. Small secondary craters have shallow ray deposits, which disappear faster than the thicker rays produced by large cratering events. [Extracted from the article]
