Raman Study of the Slobodka Ordinary Chondrite

open access: yesJournal of Raman Spectroscopy, Volume 56, Issue 11, Page 1329-1344, November 2025.
The texture and mineral chemistry of Slobodka are most consistent with L4 chondrites, exhibiting strong shock metamorphism characteristic of shock stage S4, including irregular and planar fractures, undulatory extinction, and mosaicism in olivine, pyroxene, and plagioclase.

Multiple carriers of Q noble gases in primitive meteorites

open access: yes, 2015
The main carrier of primordial heavy noble gases in chondrites is thought to be an organic phase, known as phase Q, whose precise characterization has resisted decades of investigation.

Chondrule Transport in Protoplanetary Disks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Chondrule formation remains one of the most elusive early Solar System events. Here, we take the novel approach of employing numerical simulations to investigate chondrule origin beyond purely cosmochemical methods.

Accretion and Differentiation of Vesta and the Mesosiderite Parent Body Inferred From Ni Stable Isotope Compositions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 19, 16 October 2025.
Abstract We present high‐precision Ni stable isotope data for mesosiderites, eucrites, and diogenites to investigate the accretion and differentiation of asteroid 4 Vesta. Ni isotope variations in eucrites and diogenites are dominated by kinetic diffusion and chondritic contamination, rendering them unsuitable for reconstructing Vesta's primitive Ni ...

Impact fracturing and aqueous alteration of the CM carbonaceous chondrites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Aqueous alteration of the CM carbonaceous chondrites has produced a suite of secondary minerals, and differences between meteorites in their abundance defines a progressive alteration sequence [e.g. 1, 2]. The means by which this water gained access

Elastic Properties of Returned Samples From Asteroid (162173) Ryugu

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The successful sample return from asteroid (162173) Ryugu by Hayabusa2 has contributed to our understanding of the solar system evolution. Over the course of the initial sample analysis, various measurements were conducted, such as mineralogical observation, chemical analysis, and mechanical property measurement.

Accumulation of Dust on a Surface and the Subsequent Formation of Compact Aggregate Piles

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Dust aggregation is a prominent topic in space physics, yet the accumulation of dust on surfaces in airless environments remains poorly understood. It is commonly assumed that, during the initial stages of dust deposition, particles spread uniformly to form a monolayer.

A Shocking Solar Nebula?

open access: yes, 2009
It has been suggested that shock waves in the solar nebula formed the high temperature materials observed in meteorites and comets. It is shown that the temperatures at the inner rim of the solar nebula could have been high enough over a sufficient ...
