Cometary micrometeorites and input of prebiotic compounds

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences, 2014
The apparition of life on the early Earth was probably favored by inputs of extraterrestrial matter brought by carbonaceous chondrite-like objects or cometary material. Interplanetary dust collected nowadays on Earth is related to carbonaceous chondrites

Occurrence and characterization of nanosulfide‐rich regions on asteroid Ryugu: Insights from mackinawite and pyrrhotite

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 168-181, January 2026.
Abstract Samples returned from asteroid Ryugu by the Hayabusa2 mission are dominated by fine‐grained matrix material made of phyllosilicates and nanosulfides. Here, we report the mineralogical, textural, and chemical characteristics of nanosulfide‐rich regions identified in Ryugu particles.

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

open access: yesSedimentology, Volume 73, Issue 1, Page 40-82, January 2026.
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 ...

Gamma-Ray-Induced Amino Acid Formation during Aqueous Alteration in Small Bodies: The Effects of Compositions of Starting Solutions

open access: yesLife
Organic compounds, such as amino acids, are essential for the origin of life, and they may have been delivered to the prebiotic Earth from extra-terrestrial sources, such as carbonaceous chondrites.

Identification of Magnetite in B-type Asteroids

open access: yes, 2010
Spectrally blue (B-type) asteroids are rare, with the second discovered asteroid Pallas being the largest and most famous example. We conducted a focused, infrared spectroscopic survey of B-type asteroids to search for water-related features in these ...

Mineralogy and matrix composition of CR chondrites Renazzo and EET 87770, and ungrouped chondrites Essebi and MAC 87300 [PDF]

open access: yes
The fine-grained mineralogy of the matrix of two CR chondrites, Renazzo and EET 87770, and the ungrouped (but possible related) Essebi and MAC 87300 chondrites was characterized using standard microprobe (focussed beam) and transmission electron ...

Spectral variability on primitive asteroids of the Themis and Beagle families: space weathering effects or parent body heterogeneity?

open access: yes, 2016
Themis is an old and statistically robust asteroid family populating the outer main belt, and resulting from a catastrophic collision that took place 2.5$\pm$1.0 Gyr ago.
