PHOTOPHORETIC STRENGTH ON CHONDRULES. 1. MODELING [PDF]
Photophoresis is a physical process that transports particles in optical thin parts of protoplanetary disks, especially at the inner edge and at the optically surface. To model the transport and resulting effects in detail, it is necessary to quantify the strength of photophoresis for different particle classes as a fundamental input.

Harvesting the decay energy of $^{26}$Al to drive lightning discharge in protoplanetary discs
Chondrules in primitive meteorites likely formed by recrystallisation of dust aggregates that were flash-heated to nearly complete melting. Chondrules may represent the building blocks of rocky planetesimals and protoplanets in the inner regions of ...

Drelów, the 13th and latest meteorite fall in Poland—A typical L6 chondrite with shock veins
Abstract On Tuesday, February 18, 2025, at 18:04:14 local time, residents of Poland observed a bright fireball registered by many Polish fireball stations belonging to the Skytinel Network established a few months before by Mateusz Żmija. Thus, the meteoroid's orbit, atmospheric trajectory, and the strewn field were calculated, and over 70 fragments ...

Al‐Khadhaf: The first camera‐observed (H5–6) meteorite fall from Oman
Abstract A fireball camera system installed in 2022 by the Oman Meteorite Monitoring Project (OMMP) as part of the Global Fireball Observatory (GFO) recorded a 3.2 s fireball on March 8, 2022 at 8:15 p.m. UTC. A meteoroid of 4 ± 2 kg entered the atmosphere at 14.0 km/s.

Thermomagnetic Study of Chondrules [PDF]
Thermomagnetic and saturation magnetization curves were obtained for separate chondrules and fine matrix grains from one H- (Allegan) and four L-type (Bjurböle, Elenovka, Saratov, Nikolskoe) chondrites. Mineralogical and petrological data were recovered from chondrule thin sections.

Chondrule Survivability in the Solar Nebula
The lifetime of millimeter-sized dust grains, such as chondrules, in the nominal solar nebula model is limited to ∼10 ^5 yr, due to an inward drift driven by gas drag.

Abstract Primitive asteroids and carbonaceous chondrites (CCs) record the history of processes in the early solar system. Visible and shortwave infrared (VSWIR) spectroscopy of primitive asteroids and bulk‐powdered CCs has identified shared spectral features suggestive of shared parent body origins.

Abstract The Campo del Cielo iron meteorite (IAB‐MG) provides a unique window into early solar system processes, particularly the formation and evolution of carbon phases in non‐magmatic iron meteorites. In this study, we conducted a systematic nanostructural investigation of three distinct graphite occurrences—cliftonite (type I), interstitial ...

New Paradigms For Asteroid Formation
Asteroids and meteorites provide key evidence on the formation of planetesimals in the Solar System. Asteroids are traditionally thought to form in a bottom-up process by coagulation within a population of initially km-scale planetesimals.
