The Ni isotopic composition of Ryugu reveals a common accretion region for carbonaceous chondrites. [PDF]
The isotopic compositions of samples returned from Cb-type asteroid Ryugu and Ivuna-type (CI) chondrites are distinct from other carbonaceous chondrites, which has led to the suggestion that Ryugu/CI chondrites formed in a different region of the ...

Origin of Isotopic Diversity among Carbonaceous Chondrites [PDF]
Carbonaceous chondrites are some of the most primitive meteorites and derive from planetesimals that formed a few million years after the beginning of the solar system.

The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
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.

Extended chronologies of aqueous alteration in the CM2 carbonaceous chondrites: evidence from carbonates in Queen Alexandra Range 93005 [PDF]
The Antarctic CM2 carbonaceous chondrite QUE 93005 contains four compositionally distinct carbonates, namely breunnerite, calcite, dolomite and a Ca-poor dolomite. These carbonates can form monomineralic grains, or may be intergrown as bimineralic grains

Pitted Terrain on Vesta and Implications for the Presence of Volatiles. [PDF]
We investigated the origin of unusual pitted terrain on asteroid Vesta, revealed in images from the Dawn spacecraft. Pitted terrain is characterized by irregular rimless depressions found in and around several impact craters, with a distinct morphology

Universal Biosignatures for the Detection of Life [PDF]
My goal is to identify processes of life that leave measurable effects on an organism's environment, but which are not tied to any particular biochemistry, in order to build a conceptual framework for the search for extraterrestrial life.

Pyrolytic nature of carbonaceous matter in carbonaceous chondrites and secondary metamorphsm [PDF]
P(論文)Major carbonaceous matter in five C2 carbonaceous chondrites (Y-791198,Y-74662,Murchison, B-7904,and Y-793321) and six C3 carbonaceous chondrites (Allende, Y-790992,Y-791717,Y-81020,ALH-77003,and ALH-77307) was investigated by pyrolysis-gas ...
