Inferred Samarium Abundances
The samarium data are smoothed over the lunar surface and are contained in an
IDL save file that can be restored with the command: restore,
'samarium_smooth.idl' from within IDL. The data is a 720x360 array
called sm_sm. Each pixel represents 0.5x0.5 degrees on the lunar surface.
If requested, an ASCII file of 2x2 degree equal area pixel data can be provided.
