Description:
Critical comments from Lawrence et al. are considered on the capability of the collimated neutron telescope Lunar Exploration Neutron Detector (LEND) on NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) for mapping lunar epithermal neutrons, as presented in our paper. We present two different analyses to show that our previous estimated count rates are valid and support the conclusions of that paper.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Mitrofanov, I G -- Boynton, W V -- Litvak, M L -- Sanin, A B -- Starr, R D -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2011 Nov 25;334(6059):1058-d. doi: 10.1126/science.1203483.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Institute for Space Research of Russian Academy of Science, Moscow, Russia. imitrofa@space.ru〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22116866" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
