Advanced aqueous alteration in primitive meteorites: Micro‐ to nanoscale studies of CR1 iron sulfides

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This study documents micro‐ to nanoscale observations of primary nebular and secondary parent body iron sulfides in the CR1 GRO 95577. Despite the extensive alteration of the bulk sample, some primary sulfides managed to avoid alteration, having originally formed in the solar nebula during chondrule formation by either fission‐sulfidization or

Searching for minor absorptions on D-type asteroids [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2009
AbstractPreferably located in the outer main belt, D-type asteroids experienced less heating and represent an important population for studies on the origin and evolution of the asteroid belt, as well as the relations between asteroidal and cometary bodies.

The Ames impact structure, Oklahoma: New radioisotopic constraints and implications for North American impact chronology

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Ames impact structure (Oklahoma) is thought to have formed during the Ordovician Meteor Event, based on conodont biostratigraphy of its crater fill. Here, U–Pb zircon dates from its impact‐melt portion, conducted using secondary ion mass spectrometry and laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (n = 37 spots), yield a ...

Potassium isotopic compositions and exposure ages of evolved and silica‐rich achondrites

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Some of the oldest igneous rocks in the Solar System include evolved and silica‐rich achondrites that originate from parent bodies less than 1000 km in diameter, referred to as planetesimals. While Earth was initially in a molten state and required continental crust formation and plate tectonics to generate andesite bulk compositions, evolved ...

Diversity-based Heuristic Search for Multiple-asteroid Tours

2024 IEEE Aerospace Conference
An asteroid tour is a sequence of asteroid flybys performed by a spacecraft in a single mission. Visiting different types of asteroids would be of a great scientific return, but planning such type of mission is highly complex. This is because the combinatorial problem of selecting sequences of asteroids is coupled with optimal control problem of ...

Oxygen isotope variability in the IIIAB iron meteorites and their relationship to main group pallasites

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The light element distribution in planetary cores and the processes driving core evolution in rocky planets are poorly understood. Magmatic iron meteorites are samples from the cores of ancient embryonic planetesimals and therefore provide a window into the processes governing core evolution. We performed high precision oxygen isotope analyses

Utopia Remembers: The Soviet Past in the Imagined Communist Future

The Russian Review, EarlyView.
Abstract After a twenty‐five‐year hiatus, the reappearance of utopian literature in 1957 prompted Soviet literary watchdogs to corral the subgenre into an ideologically‐acceptable mold. A key requirement was for future generations to be depicted as reverently commemorating the past.

The Benefits of High Resolution Multispectral TIR Data and Its Impending Loss by NASA After Four Decades

Perspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract NASA has led multispectral (≥3 wavelength bands) thermal infrared (TIR) sensor development from the earliest days of the agency. These data are critical in addressing a wide range of scientific questions and administration priories by measuring both temperature (for wildfire and volcanic eruption monitoring, agricultural plant stress, and ...

A Deep Search for Venus Co-orbital Asteroids

, 2021
Venus has recently been discovered to share its orbit with a ring of dust. This circumsolar ring of dust was imaged independently by two spacecraft: HELIOS A/B [1] and STEREO A/B [2]. HELIOS was able to estimate the radial and latitudinal extent of the ring by flying through it, while STEREO imaged its structure from 1 AU. Earlier work by Pokorný &

Cultural geography of heat: Artistic experiments with heat’s animacies

Geographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 3, August 2026.
A sustained, cultural geographical engagement with heat is long overdue. I advance this agenda by engaging with the work of contemporary artists. Artists are responding to uneven conditions of global heating by exploring heat’s animacies: how heat interweaves with the practices and textures of life.
