Enhancement of the Cerean Exosphere by Sublimation from Complex Craters

On icy bodies like the dwarf planet Ceres, impacts excavate volatile-rich material from beneath a dessicated lag layer and deposit it in the near-surface environment where higher temperatures drive sublimation. Ice has been detected in the upper meter of the ejecta blanket and interior of Occator cr...
