Experimentally determined trace element partition coefficients between hibonite, melilite, spinel, and silicate melts

open access: yesData in Brief, 2018
This article provides new data on mineral/melt partitioning in systems relevant to the evolution of chondrites, Calcium Aluminum-Rich Inclusions (CAI) in chondrites and related meteorites.

Shock metamorphism of ordinary chondrites

open access: yes, 1991
A revised petrographic classification of progressive stages of shock metamorphism of ordinary chondrites is proposed. Six stages of shock (S1 to S6) are defined, based on shock effects in olivine and plagioclase as recognized by thin section microscopy ...

Stability toward High Energy Radiation of Non-Proteinogenic Amino Acids: Implications for the Origins of Life

open access: yesLife, 2013
A series of non-proteinogenic amino acids, most of them found quite commonly in the meteorites known as carbonaceous chondrites, were subjected to solid state radiolysis in vacuum to a total radiation dose of 3.2 MGy corresponding to 23% of the total ...

Heterogeneous distribution of Al-26 at the birth of the Solar System

open access: yes, 2011
It is believed that Al-26, a short-lived (t1/2 = 0.73 Ma) and now extinct radionuclide, was uniformly distributed in the nascent Solar System with the initial Al-26/Al-27 ratio of ~5.2\times10-5, suggesting its external stellar origin.

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

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 ...

The Dehydration of Serpentines and Extraction of Water

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Some groups of carbonaceous chondrites are dominated by phyllosilicates, specifically the serpentine group, which are characterized as alternating layers of silicates, metal cations, and hydroxyl (OH). Both antigorite, an Mg-rich member, and cronstedtite,

Peixe Zircon as a Quality Control Reference Material in U‐Pb Geochronology by LA‐ICP‐MS

open access: yesGeostandards and Geoanalytical Research, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 369-389, June 2026.
Key Points Peixe#0 zircon was characterised for U‐Pb geochronology using CA‐ID‐TIMS, SIMS and a long‐term LA‐ICP‐MS data set. The consistent results establish Peixe#0 as a reference material for U‐Pb quality control. Trace element heterogeneity requires careful, CL‐guided spot selection.

Volatile Element Depletion of Carbonaceous Chondrites—Insights from Mass-dependent Zinc, Cadmium, and Tellurium Isotope Variations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The origin of volatile depletion in the solar system remains a topic of intense debate. To further inform our understanding of the mechanisms involved, this study characterized the mass-dependent Zn, Cd, and Te isotope compositions and concentrations of ...
