Combined Geodetic and Seismological Study of the December 2020 Mw = 4.6 Thiva (Central Greece) Shallow Earthquake

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
On 2 December 2020, a moderate and shallow Mw = 4.6 earthquake occurred in Boeotia (Central Greece) near the city of Thiva. Despite its magnitude, the co-seismic ground deformation field was detectable and measurable by Sentinel-1, ascending and ...

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

open access: yesMeteoritics &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

Constraints and observational manifestations of failed solar eruptions in a toroidal magnetic cage

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Observations show that many solar eruptions remain confined in the magnetic configuration of strong overlying magnetic fields, which is commonly referred to as the magnetic cage. Aims.

SN 2018gj: A Short Plateau Type II Supernova with Persistent Blueshifted Ha Emission

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present an extensive, panchromatic photometric (UV, optical, and near-IR) and low-resolution optical spectroscopic coverage of a Type IIP supernova SN 2018gj that occurred on the outskirts of the host galaxy NGC 6217.

LifeMet: Report on the 2024–2025 meteorite recovery expedition in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica for the study of microbe–meteorite interactions

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Since the discovery of nine meteorites near the Yamato mountains in 1969, Antarctica has been recognized as a superb location for meteorite recovery. While Antarctic recovery expeditions prioritize meteorite preservation for mineralogical and planetary studies, meteorites are not typically collected for biological applications.

The role of composition in the spectral evolution of carbonaceous asteroids as informed by Bennu sample return

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Near‐Earth rubble‐pile asteroids Bennu and Ryugu are part of the carbonaceous taxonomic complex (C‐complex), and samples returned from both bodies resemble the most aqueously altered carbonaceous chondrites. However, telescopic and spacecraft visible–near infrared (VIS–NIR) reflectance spectra of Ryugu exhibit a red (positive) spectral slope ...

Stellar Flares, Superflares, and Coronal Mass Ejections—Entering the Big Data Era

open access: yesUniverse
Flares, sometimes accompanied by coronal mass ejections (CMEs), are the result of sudden changes in the magnetic field of stars with high energy release through magnetic reconnection, which can be observed across a wide range of the electromagnetic ...

Evidence of a local BCC‐type coordination of cobalt in FCC taenite of iron meteorites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Ni, Co, and Fe K‐edge X‐ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) measurements were performed, revealing an unexpected local structure around Co in well‐known iron and stony‐iron meteorites. Cobalt is enriched in kamacite but remains in taenite at concentrations of at least 0.3 atom%.

Stardust Mine: A 2024 gabbroic shergottite from Arizona, USA

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract This study provides an initial characterization of Stardust Mine, a fresh gabbroic enriched shergottite collected in Arizona, USA, in September 2024 and is the first Martian meteorite to be unequivocably collected on US soil. Analysis was conducted on the type specimen and finds that Stardust Mine is composed of equal proportions of pyroxene ...

Mineralogy, mineral chemistry, and redox equilibria in ten aggregate particles from asteroid Bennu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Examination of 10 Bennu aggregate particles has revealed the presence of many phases which taken together can provide constraints on the oxygen fugacity (fO2) of Bennu samples. Phyllosilicates (saponite and serpentine), carbonates, oxides (magnetite, chromite), sulfides (pyrrhotite, pentlandite), phosphate (hydroxyapatite, Na‐Mg‐phosphate ...
