Noble gases and nitrogen in material from asteroid Bennu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report the elemental and isotopic abundances of all stable noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon) in eight particles from asteroid Bennu returned by NASA's OSIRIS‐REx mission. We also report nitrogen abundances and isotopic ratios that were analyzed alongside neon and argon in four additional Bennu particles.

Refined Ordovician timescale reveals no link between asteroid breakup and biodiversification

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
The high amount of L-type chondrites discovered in Ordovician sediments has previously been linked with the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event. But here, Lindskoget al.

Low delta-V near-Earth asteroids: A survey of suitable targets for space missions

open access: yes, 2014
In the last decades Near-Earth Objects (NEOs) have become very important targets to study, since they can give us clues to the formation, evolution and composition of the Solar System.

The fall of the Haag (LL4‐6) chondrite breccia—Just 8 years after the nearby fall Stubenberg (LL6)

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract On October 24, 2024, an impressive fireball was visible over Austria. After the possible strewn field was calculated, the first sample of the Haag meteorite, with a mass of 8.76 g, was discovered on November 2, 2024, 8 days after the fireball event. Four more samples were found afterward putting the total sample mass at about 151 g.

Unique evidence of fluid alteration in the Kakowa (L6) ordinary chondrite

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Meteorites preserve evidence of processes on their parent bodies, including alteration, metamorphism, and shock events. Here we show that the Kakowa (L6) ordinary chondrite (OC) preserves both shock-melt veins and pockets of detrital grains from a ...

Sulfide–Metal Assemblages on CR2 Chondrule Rims: Products of Nebular Fission–Sulfidization and Parent Body Oxidation–Serpentinization

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We conducted a scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study of sulfide–metal assemblages (SMAs) in minimally to moderately altered CR2 chondrites. The assemblages occur on chondrule rims and consist of kamacite cores rimmed by pyrrhotite.

Experimental constraints on the origin of metal and carbon in ureilite meteorites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Ureilites are carbon‐rich ultramafic achondrites that display unique textures, including strips of metal and carbon phases situated along grain boundaries and in fractures. Shock metamorphism observed in ureilites suggests an episode of brittle deformation caused by impact disruption of their parent body.
