Sub-Zero Alteration in an Isotopically Heavy Brine Preserved in a Pristine H Chondrite Xenolith [PDF]
Introduction: Brecciated H chondrites host a variety of xenoliths, including unshocked, phyllo- silicate-rich carbonaceous chondrites (CCs). The brecciated H chondrite Zag (H3-6) is one of two chondrites to host macroscopic (1 - 5mm), xenolithic crystals

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

We present in this study the effects of short-term heating on organics in the Tagish Lake meteorite and how the difference in the heating conditions can modify the organic matter (OM) in a way that complicates the interpretation of a parent body’s ...

Hydrous Chondrites under Shock
We examine the shock response of a chondrule-like multicomponent silicate melt enriched with 2 wt% H _2 O, representative of hydrous chondrites, using ab initio molecular dynamics.

Mineralogy and matrix composition of CR chondrites Renazzo and EET 87770, and ungrouped chondrites Essebi and MAC 87300 [PDF]
The fine-grained mineralogy of the matrix of two CR chondrites, Renazzo and EET 87770, and the ungrouped (but possible related) Essebi and MAC 87300 chondrites was characterized using standard microprobe (focussed beam) and transmission electron ...
