    <description descriptionType="Abstract">&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Research data supporting Chromium on Mercury project and the paper &amp;quot;Chromium on Mercury: New results from the MESSENGER X-Ray Spectrometer and implications for the innermost planet’s Geochemical evolution,&amp;quot; in the Journal of Geophysical Research.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The primary underlying data is archived by &amp;lt;a href=&amp;quot;https://pds.nasa.gov&amp;quot;&amp;gt;NASA Planetary Data System (PDS)&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;. This subset includes additional data (one spreadsheet and eighteen images) not archived by NASA. &amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;The spreadsheet contains the fitting results for 133 MESSENGER XRS flare spectra reported in Nittler et al. (Chromium on Mercury: New results from the MESSENGER X-Ray Spectrometer and implications for the innermost planet’s geochemical evolution). &amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;As discussed in the paper, the Cr/Si and Fe/Si ratios are corrected for the phase angle effect. Both corrected, and uncorrected data are provided for Cr/Si. Error bars are one-sigma. Errors are statistical, and systematic error bars may be larger. MXRS data are available from the NASA PDS&amp;lt;/a&amp;gt;.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Dataset contains 18 images, 1 spreadsheet - &amp;apos;crflaredata.csv,&amp;apos; and 1 README documentation file providing the methodology and variable information. Approximately 3 megabytes.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;</description>
