Nanoscale infrared imaging analysis of carbonaceous chondrites to understand organic-mineral interactions during aqueous alteration. [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2019 Organic matter in carbonaceous chondrites is distributed in fine-grained matrix. To understand pre- and postaccretion history of organic matter and its association with surrounding minerals, microscopic techniques are mandatory.

Sulfur‐bearing serpentine in carbonaceous chondrites [PDF]
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract A correlative multi‐technique approach, including electron microscopy and X‐ray synchrotron work, has been used to obtain both structural and compositional information of a sulfur‐bearing serpentine identified in several carbonaceous chondrites (Winchcombe CM2, Aguas Zarcas CM2, Ivuna CI, and Orgueil CI), and in Ryugu samples returned by the ...

The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 229-246., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Exploring the link between molecular cloud ices and chondritic organic matter in laboratory
Nature Communications, 2021 Several scenarios exist to explain the origins of the organic matter found in carbonaceous chondrites. Here, the authors show laboratory experiments confirming that a significant portion of the soluble organic matter can originate from organic ices ...

Stellar Outbursts and Chondrite Composition
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 The temperatures of observed protoplanetary disks are not sufficiently high to produce the accretion rate needed to form stars, nor are they sufficient to explain the volatile depletion patterns in CM, CO, and CV chondrites and terrestrial planets.
