  1. ; (, Surface Science Spectra)
    High-purity niningerite (MgS) was synthesized by BenchChem under vacuum conditions for use in laboratory simulations of solar-ion space weathering of sulfide minerals that are expected to be present on the surface of Mercury. MgS was initially characterized via x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy prior to investigations into the preferential loss of near-surface sulfur in niningerite with 2 keV H2+ irradiation. Survey and high-resolution (Mg 1s, Mg 2p, S 2p) x-ray photoelectron spectra of as-received magnesium sulfide powder (99.9%) are presented, including surface contaminants that originate from exposure to atmosphere (C 1s, O 1s). Minor impurities derived from sample synthesis (Al 2s, Al 2p) and packaging or processing (F 1s) are noted in the survey spectrum.
