Аннотация:The topography of the Moon’s surface and the possible distribution of density anomalies in its interiorhave been determined for the early stage of the Moon’s evolution. The distribution of gravitational anomaliesand gravitational potential in various layers of the upper mantle has been found, which is due to the gravitationalinfluence of anomalous structures of the crust and mantle. The analysis of the results leads to theconclusion about the possibility of convective motions in the molten electrically conductive layers of the crustand mantle, which could create an ancient magnetic field. For the current state of the lunar density structure,gravitational anomalies in various layers, which may lead to solid-state convection in some solidified regionsof the Moon, have also been identified.DOI: 10.1134/S0038094623060035
