Chondrule Dust Rim Growth: Influence of Restructuring Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the influence of disruptive collisions on chondrule rim growth, emphasizing the role of kinetic energy in determining the outcomes of these interactions.

Petrography and mineral chemistry of Escalón meteorite, an H4 chondrite, México

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2018
The Escalón meteorite, a crusted mass weighing 54.3 g, was recovered near Zona del Silencio in Escalón, state of Chihuahua, México. The stone is an ordinary chondrite belonging to the high iron group H, type 4.

CO Self-Shielding as a Mechanism to Make 16O-Enriched Solids in the Solar Nebula

open access: yesChallenges, 2014
Photochemical self-shielding of CO has been proposed as a mechanism to produce solids observed in the modern, 16O-depleted solar system. This is distinct from the relatively 16O-enriched composition of the solar nebula, as demonstrated by the oxygen ...

Trace element composition of silicate minerals from Kunashak Meteorite (L6)

open access: yesЗаписки Горного института
Major (EPMA) and trace (SIMS) element geochemistry in the silicate minerals (olivine, pyroxene and plagioclase) of Kunashak equilibrated ordinary chondrite (L6) is described. No variations in the major element concentrations of the silicate minerals have

Synthesis of Si-Fe Chondrule-like Dust Analogues in RF Discharge Plasmas

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Chondrules are tiny particles that occur in stony meteorites and are considered as the building blocks of early asteroids and planets. It is believed that they were formed by the fast heating of the dust in the solar nebula.

Late Pebble Accretion of Comet 81P/Wild 2 Nucleus: Evidence from a Plagioclase-bearing Chondrule Fragment, Pyxie

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Comet 81P/Wild 2 is a ∼4.5 km-sized primordial object that almost has not been modified by internal heating by ^26 Al decay. Its nucleus could have been formed by hierarchical agglomeration or gravitational collapse of pebble swarms concentrated by ...

The Buritizal meteorite: classification of a new Brazilian chondrite

open access: yesREM: International Engineering Journal
On August 14, 1967, the reporter Saulo Gomes, working at TV Tupi, went to a small city in the State of São Paulo called Buritizal to investigate reports of a meteorite fall and write a newspaper report.

Scanning electron microscopy characterization of iron, nickel and sulfur in chondrules from the Allende meteorite – further evidence for between-chondrules major compositional differences

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2014
En este trabajo se analiza la distribución espacial y los contenidos relativos de hierro (Fe), níquel (Ni) y azufre (S) en condros individuales separados de un fragmento del meteorito Allende, por medio de observaciones y análisis con microscopía ...

Forming the Noncarbonaceous Chondrite Parent Bodies in the Presence of the Jupiter Barrier

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Meteorites can be divided into two groups—noncarbonaceous chondrite like (NC) and carbonaceous chondrite like (CC)—with distinct stable-isotope compositions. Parent bodies of NC and CC meteorites have overlapping formation ages. This suggests they formed
