Northwest Africa 11024—A heated and dehydrated unique carbonaceous (CM) chondrite

Meteoritics and Planetary Science, 2018
Based on the high abundance of fine‐grained material and its dark appearance, NWA 11024 was recognized as a CM chondrite, which is also confirmed by oxygen isotope measurements.

Nondestructive analysis of Bennu samples toward comparative studies with Ryugu samples

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Analyzing primitive extraterrestrial samples from asteroids is key to understanding the evolution of the early solar system. The OSIRIS‐REx mission returned samples from the B‐type asteroid Bennu, providing a valuable opportunity to compare them with the Ryugu samples collected by the Hayabusa2 mission.

Facies mosaic distribution and stratigraphic disorder of a mixed carbonate–siliciclastic tidal succession

Sedimentology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Complex stratigraphic arrangements may be generated through lateral facies transitions from the strata of aeolian depositional systems into bordering peritidal deposits. In such scenarios, sedimentary architectural complexity and associated facies heterogeneities are governed by the interplay between autogenic processes inherent to tidal ...

Molecular Asymmetry in Prebiotic Chemistry: An Account from Meteorites

Life, 2016
Carbonaceous Chondrite (CC) meteorites are fragments of asteroids, solar planetesimals that never became large enough to separate matter by their density, like terrestrial planets.

The Maribo CM2 meteorite fall - survival of weak material at high entry speed

, 2019
High entry speed (> 25 km/s) and low density (< 2500 kg/m3) are two factors that lower the chance of a meteoroid to drop meteorites. The 26 g carbonaceous (CM2) meteorite Maribo recovered in Denmark in 2009 was delivered by a superbolide observed by ...

Source regions of carbonaceous meteorites and near-Earth objects [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics
The source regions of ordinary chondrites (sim 80 of all falls) and large S-type near-Earth objects (NEOs; sim 30) have recently been identified with three young asteroid families (Karin, Koronis, Massalia) being at the origin of most ordinary chondrite ...

Ground-based Characterization of Hayabusa2 Mission Target Asteroid 162173 Ryugu: Constraining Mineralogical Composition in Preparation for Spacecraft Operations

, 2017
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
