Asteroids that are targets of spacecraft missions are interesting because they present us with an opportunity to validate ground-based spectral observations. One such object is near-Earth asteroid (NEA) (162173) Ryugu, which is the target of the Japanese

Separation of Q-Noble gas carrier from bulk carbon in enstatite chondrites by stepped combustion [PDF]
Detailed stepped combustion of HF-HCl residues from carbonaceous and enstatite chondrites suggest Q-noble gas carrier is different from bulk carbon in the ...

Pyrolysis-GC×GC-TOFMS to characterize carbonaceous chondrites [PDF]
Using pyrolysis-GCxGC-TOFMS to analyze organic carbon in carbonaceous chondrites gives a massive increase in both sensitivity and structural information from samples when compared to traditional Py-GC ...

Forming the Noncarbonaceous Chondrite Parent Bodies in the Presence of the Jupiter Barrier
Meteorites can be divided into two groups—noncarbonaceous chondrite like (NC) and carbonaceous chondrite like (CC)—with distinct stable-isotope compositions. Parent bodies of NC and CC meteorites have overlapping formation ages. This suggests they formed

Geochemistry of the Cretaceous-Tertiary transition boundary at Blake Nose (N.W. Atlantic): Cosmogenic Ni [PDF]
The Cretaceous-Tertiary (KT) boundary transition at the Blake Nose Plateau recovered by ODP Leg 171B (site 1049, hole A, core 17X, section 2) contains an ejecta bed (thickness ca. 17 cm) marking a late Cretaceous asteroid impact.

Insight into the evolution of the Tagish Lake carbonaceous chondrite by analysis of the oxygen isotopic composition of extracted water and Mössbauer spectroscopy [PDF]
Analysis of oxygen isotopes in water from Tagish Lake together with Mössbauer Spectroscopy suggest some similarities to the CI group of meteorites but also suggest differences in the extent of parent body hydrothermal ...

Life on Earth can grow on extraterrestrial organic carbon
The universe is a vast store of organic abiotic carbon that could potentially drive heterotrophy on habitable planets. Meteorites are one of the transporters of this carbon to planetary surfaces.
