Multiple carriers of Q noble gases in primitive meteorites
The main carrier of primordial heavy noble gases in chondrites is thought to be an organic phase, known as phase Q, whose precise characterization has resisted decades of investigation.

Primitive meteorite groups such as the Vigarano, Mighei, and Karoonda carbonaceous chondrites have enigmatic patterns of elemental abundances, with moderately volatile elements—those that transition from vapor to condensate between ∼400 and ∼900 K ...

The evolution of organic material on Asteroid 162173 Ryugu and its delivery to Earth
The recent return of samples from asteroid 162173 Ryugu provides a first insight into early Solar System prebiotic evolution from known planetary bodies. Ryugu’s samples are CI chondrite-like, rich in water and organic material, and primarily composed of

Contribution of the Moon-forming Impactor to the Volatile Inventory in the Bulk Silicate Earth
The timing and mechanism by which the present-day inventory of life-essential volatiles hydrogen–carbon–nitrogen–sulfur (H–C–N–S) in the bulk silicate Earth (BSE) was established are debated.
