Archives of impact: The politics of craters on Earth

open access: yesGeographical Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, May 2026.
This paper examines Earth’s 195 confirmed impact craters as archives, exploring their cataloguing and presentation as heritage sites. It argues Western scientific framings using military language and emphasising catastrophe overlook settler colonialism’s violent histories and marginalise indigenous earth‐sky cosmologies.

Laser Irradiation of Carbonaceous Chondrite Simulants: Space-weathering Implications for C-complex Asteroids

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Surfaces of carbonaceous asteroids (C-complex) have shown diverse, contrasting spectral variations, which may be related to space weathering. We performed laser irradiation experiments on CI and CM simulant material under vacuum to mimic the spectral ...

Timing of Metamorphism and Deformation in the Neoarchean Quetico Metasedimentary Belt, Superior Craton, Constrained by Garnet Trace‐Element Mapping and Lu–Hf Geochronology

open access: yesJournal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 4, Page 265-286, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Quetico subprovince of the Superior Province is among the largest metasedimentary belts globally and provides evidence of tectonic processes at play during the final stages of Archean cratonization. Although previous studies have shown that deformation and metamorphism of the 2.7‐Ga turbiditic protolith resulted in regional subvertical ...

Earth's Lower Mantle Predominated by Ferric Iron‐Rich Bridgmanite Inferred From High Pressure Elasticity Measurements

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract The absence of sound‐velocity data spanning the entire lower mantle pressures for (Fe, Al)‐bearing bridgmanite impedes direct comparisons with seismic wave observations, leaving the chemistry of the lower mantle unresolved. The present ultra‐high pressure sound‐velocity measurements of in situ synthesized (Fe, Al)‐bearing bridgmanite up to 130

Pułtusk H5 Chondrite—A Compilation of Chemical, Physical, and Thermophysical Data

open access: yesGeosciences
The Pułtusk meteorite, classified as an H5 ordinary chondrite, is one of the best documented Polish falls, yet some important data on its physical and thermophysical properties remain limited.

Forming the Noncarbonaceous Chondrite Parent Bodies in the Presence of the Jupiter Barrier

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Meteorites can be divided into two groups—noncarbonaceous chondrite like (NC) and carbonaceous chondrite like (CC)—with distinct stable-isotope compositions. Parent bodies of NC and CC meteorites have overlapping formation ages. This suggests they formed
