Structure of the chondrules and the chemical composition of olivine in meteorite Jesenice

open access: yesGeologija, 2013
This paper presents a mineralogical analysis of various chondrule types and chemical analysis of olivine indifferent parts of meteorite Jesenice. Quantitative energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy with a scanning electronmicroscope was used in the ...

Thermal Alteration of Labile Elements in Carbonaceous Chondrites

open access: yes, 2018
Carbonaceous chondrite meteorites are some of the oldest Solar System planetary materials available for study. The CI group has bulk abundances of elements similar to those of the solar photosphere.

Vertical and Spatial Geochemical Variations of Nishinoshima Volcaniclastic Deposits, Japan, During Episode 4

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Nishinoshima is a volcanic island in the Ogasawara Arc that has exhibited intermittent activity since 2013, including four major eruptive episodes: 2013–2015 (Episode 1), 2017 (Episode 2), 2018 (Episode 3), and 2019–2020 (Episode 4). Previous studies reported a change in eruption style—from a Strombolian eruption with lava flows (Episode 1 to the early

Composition of Near-Earth Asteroid (4179) Toutatis

open access: yes, 2012
Surface composition of near-Earth asteroid (4179) Toutatis is consistent with an undifferentiated L-chondrite composition. This is inconsistent with early observations that suggested high pyroxene iron content and a differentiated body.Comment: 15 pages,

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Particle Accretion in Microgravity. I. Particle Sizes and Bulk Densities

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
The precise mechanisms related to the accretion of protoplanetesimals from dust in protoplanetary disks (PPDs) are poorly understood. In order to better understand the early stages of planet formation and the growth of millimeter–centimeter agglomerates,

Abundance, distribution, and origin of 60Fe in the solar protoplanetary disk

open access: yes, 2012
Meteorites contain relict decay products of short-lived radionuclides that were present in the protoplanetary disk when asteroids and planets formed. Several studies reported a high abundance of 60Fe (t1/2=2.62+/-0.04 Myr) in chondrites (60Fe/56Fe~6*10-7)
