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

Scientific 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 ...

Characterising the CI and CI-like carbonaceous chondrites using thermogravimetric analysis and infrared spectroscopy

Earth, Planets and Space, 2015
The CI and CI-like chondrites provide a record of aqueous alteration in the early solar system. However, the CI-like chondrites differ in having also experienced a late stage period of thermal metamorphism.

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

Meteoritics &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.

Report on Antarctic meteorites search around the Sor Rondane Mountains, JARE-29 1988-1989

Antarctic Record, 1990
A systematic search for Antarctic meteorites was carried out by the Asuka winter party of the 29th Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition on the bare ice field around the Sφr Rondane Mountains in the 1987-1988 and 1988-1989 field seasons.

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

Meteoritics &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

Meteoritics &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.

Roughness and Angularity of Fragments from Meteorite Disruption Experiments

The Planetary Science Journal, 2023
In this study, we set out to explore the relationship between fracture roughness and sample strength. We analyze 45 fragments of Aba Panu, Allende, and Tamdakht, three meteorites that have been strength-tested to disruption, to determine whether their ...

Chromite in main group pallasite meteorites: Accessory mineral tracing planetesimal differentiation

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Main group pallasite meteorites (PMG) are samples of an early, highly differentiated magmatic planetesimal dominated by olivine and metal‐sulfide‐phosphide assemblages with accessory chromite among other phases. This mineralogy reflects mantle‐ and core‐related reservoirs, but the relative contributions of each and the overall petrogenesis are

Parent body thermal metamorphism of enstatite chondrites: Disentangling the effects of shock melting

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Enstatite chondrites (ECs) formed on at least two parent bodies, EH and EL. After the accretion of the EC parent bodies, EC material was subjected to varying degrees of parent body thermal metamorphism (measured by petrologic types 3–6), due to heat released by radioactive isotope decay.
