Kinetic Structure of an Interplanetary Shock Observed at Two Heliocentric Longitudes

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Collisionless shocks convert bulk flow energy into heat, electromagnetic fields, and non‐thermal particle populations. Recent studies suggest that downstream magnetic oscillations could play an important role in ion‐scale energy dissipation at low‐Mach‐number shocks; however, the specific shock and plasma parameters involved remain poorly ...

Apatite in Bennu samples indicates multiple stages of aqueous alteration

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 504-521, March 2026.
Abstract Calcium phosphates are ubiquitous in planetary materials, including samples returned from asteroid Bennu by the OSIRIS‐REx mission. We characterized apatite [Ca5(PO4)3(F,Cl,OH)] grains in Bennu samples by scanning electron microscopy, electron microprobe analysis, and transmission electron microscopy to investigate their compositions, mineral ...

Geochemical and petrographic re‐evaluation of ungrouped iron meteorites from Western Australia

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 444-465, March 2026.
Abstract Under the current classification scheme, ungrouped irons make up ~11% of all recognized iron meteorites. A further ~7% of iron meteorites are currently classified as simply “irons” and are yet to be fully classified. To potentially classify these meteorites, newer approaches, including either statistical modeling or advanced geochemical ...

Shock metamorphic effects in Itokawa phosphates: A comparison with megaregolith‐derived meteorites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 351-370, March 2026.
Abstract Returned regolith samples from the asteroid Itokawa provide a unique opportunity to compare shock metamorphic effects in unconsolidated regolith materials with those preserved in lithified meteorites, that is, megaregolith. We analyzed four Itokawa particles (Ueda—RA‐QD02‐0519, Narahara—RA‐QD02‐0573, Domon—RA‐QD02‐0588, Ishiuchi—RX‐MD03‐0212 ...

Moon's volcanic history revealed in glassy spherules from Apollo 17 soil 76501

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 389-404, March 2026.
Abstract Rapidly quenched droplets of pyroclastically erupted lava are common in lunar regolith at landing sites proximal to the maria. Here, we document the U‐Pb chronologies, major element, and trace element compositions of picritic glassy particles from Apollo 17 regolith sample 76501. These particles are dominated by high‐Ti compositions similar to
