PHOTOPHORETIC STRENGTH ON CHONDRULES. 2. EXPERIMENT [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2014
Photophoretic motion can transport illuminated particles in protoplanetary disks. In a previous paper we focused on the modeling of steady state photophoretic forces based on the compositions derived from tomography and heat transfer. Here, we present microgravity experiments which deviate significantly from the steady state calculations of the first ...

Method Development for the Analysis of Carbonaceous Chondrites by Laser Desorption/Ionization and Secondary Ion Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Mass Spectrom
ABSTRACT This study focuses on the development of a laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometric method for analyzing carbonaceous chondrites, meteorites that may hold clues to the origin of life. Since carbonaceous chondrites are only available in small quantities, we initially designed an artificial meteorite material (the mineral forsterite) doped

Trace element geochemistry of ordinary chondrite chondrules: the type I/type II chondrule dichotomy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
We report trace element concentrations of silicate phases in chondrules from LL3 ordinary chondrites Bishunpur and Semarkona. Results are similar to previously reported data for carbonaceous chondrites, with rare earth element (REE) concentrations ...

Chondrule formation, metamorphism, brecciation, an important new primary chondrule group, and the classification of chondrules [PDF]

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Science Letters, 1995
The recently proposed compositional classification scheme for meteoritic chondrules divides the chondrules into groups depending on the composition of their two major phases, olivine (or pyroxene) and the mesostasis, both of which are genetically important.

Barred olivine chondrules in ordinary chondrites: Constraints on chondrule formation

open access: yesMeteoritics & Planetary Science, 2023
AbstractIn general, barred olivine (BO) chondrules formed from completely melted precursors. Among BO chondrules in unequilibrated ordinary chondrites, there are significant positive correlations among chondrule diameter, bar thickness, and rim thickness.

Bubbles to Chondrites-II. Chemical fractionations in chondrites

open access: yesProgress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2021
We attempt to develop a possible theory of chemical fractionations in chondrites, that is consistent with various features of chondritic components and current observation of protoplanetary disks (PPD).

Calcium Isotope Evolution During Differentiation of Vesta and Calcium Isotopic Heterogeneities in the Inner Solar System

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
We employed MC‐ICP‐MS to measure the mass‐dependent Ca isotope compositions of Vesta‐related meteorites. Eucrites and diogenites show distinct Ca isotope compositions, which is caused by crystallization of isotopically heavy orthopyroxene. The Ca isotope

The Origin of Chondrules: Constraints from Matrix-Chondrule Complementarity

open access: yesEarth and Planetary Sciences Letters, 2015
One of the major unresolved problems in cosmochemistry is the origin of chondrules, once molten, spherical silicate droplets with diameters of 0.2 to 2 mm. Chondrules are an essential component of primitive meteorites and perhaps of all early solar system materials including the terrestrial planets.

Implications for Chondrule Formation Regions and Solar Nebula Magnetism from Statistical Reanalysis of Chondrule Paleomagnetism

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
Converging lines of evidence show that protoplanetary disks are complex environments hosting spatial and temporal variability at multiple scales.
