Mineral Processing by Short Circuits in Protoplanetary Disks
, 2013 Meteoritic chondrules were formed in the early solar system by brief heating of silicate dust to melting temperatures. Some highly refractory grains (Type B calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions, CAIs) also show signs of transient heating.

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 39-63, January 2026.Abstract Apollo sample 67015 has been classified as a fragmental breccia comprised of highlands‐type clasts and is proposed to be the most complex Apollo 16 sample. 67015 is dominated by impact melt rock clasts that display a variety of textures, which have been previously interpreted to be indicative of multiple impact events.

New Paradigms For Asteroid Formation
, 2015 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.

Nondestructive analysis of Bennu samples toward comparative studies with Ryugu samples
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 1, Page 3-16, January 2026.Abstract Analyzing primitive extraterrestrial samples from asteroids is key to understanding the evolution of the early solar system. The OSIRIS‐REx mission returned samples from the B‐type asteroid Bennu, providing a valuable opportunity to compare them with the Ryugu samples collected by the Hayabusa2 mission.

The use of SEM/EDS method in mineralogical analysis of ordinary chondritic meteorite
Geologija, 2009 The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of scanning electron microscopy coupled with energy dispersiveX-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS) for determination of mineral phases according to their stoichiometry and assessment of mineral composition of ...
