Looking for the origin of life in cosmochemistry: Asteroids and their carbon-rich meteorites
Carbonaceous chondrite meteorites are carbon-containing fragments of primitive asteroids that have offered the only samples available to date giving insights into chemical evolution in laboratory analyses.

Tetrataenite in carbonaceous chondrites.
Presence of tetrataenite grains has been recently confirmed in Yamato 791717 carbonaceous (CO3) chondrite. The observed coexistence of tetrataenite fine grains with more abundant magnetite and kamacite in this CO3 chondrite suggests that the tetrataenite grains were directly formed by a coalescence process of Fe and Ni fine particle smokes in the solar

Trace element geochemistry of ordinary chondrite chondrules: the type I/type II chondrule dichotomy [PDF]
We report trace element concentrations of silicate phases in chondrules from LL3 ordinary chondrites Bishunpur and Semarkona. Results are similar to previously reported data for carbonaceous chondrites, with rare earth element (REE) concentrations ...

Grain Size Effects on UV–MIR (0.2–14 μm) Spectra of Carbonaceous Chondrite Groups
Carbonaceous chondrites are among the most important meteorite types and have played a vital role in deciphering the origin and evolution of our solar system.

The examination of the physical properties of chondrules has generally received less emphasis than other properties of meteorites such as their mineralogy, petrology, and chemical and isotopic compositions.

Protracted Timescales for Nebular Processing of First-formed Solids in the Solar System
The calcium–aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) from chondritic meteorites are the first solids formed in the solar system. Rim formation around CAIs marks a time period in early solar system history when CAIs existed as free-floating objects and had not yet

A mutli-technique search for the most primitive CO chondrites [PDF]
As part of a study to identify the most primitive COs and to look for weakly altered CMs amongst the COs, we have conducted a multi-technique study of 16 Antarctic meteorites that had been classified as primitive COs. For this study, we have determined: (

We conducted ground-based performance evaluation tests of the Near-Infrared Spectrometer (NIRS3) onboard Hayabusa2 spacecraft in November 2013 and from April to May 2014 and established a method for evaluating its measured reflectance spectra ...
