Cosmic Dust Flux During the Quaternary: The Record of Large Scoriaceous and Unmelted Micrometeorites From the Transantarctic Mountains Collection

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract We estimate the cosmic dust flux to Earth through the study of rare micrometeorites that preserve part of their precursor features during atmospheric entry heating, namely unmelted and scoriaceous subtypes. Combining high‐precision mass balance measurements, X‐ray computed microtomography and scanning electron microscopy, we studied mass, size

A Common Reference Material for Mass‐Dependent Sn Isotope Compositions: An Inter‐Laboratory Calibration Approach

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research, Volume 50, Issue 2, Page 341-367, June 2026.
Key Points We recommend using the notation δ122/118SnNIST SRM 3161a for mass‐dependent Sn isotope data. We derived conversion factors relative to NIST SRM 3161a for Puri Sn CEZA (0.132 ± 0.011‰), Sn Lyon (0.229 ± 0.016‰), Sn IPGP (0.162 ± 0.018‰). Tin isotope compositions are presented for SPEX CertiPrep Sn and nine USGS reference materials.

Recent developments in isotope-ratio mass spectrometry for geochemistry and cosmochemistry [PDF]

, 2016
Mass spectrometry is fundamental to measurements of isotope ratios for applications in isotope geochemistry, geochronology, and cosmochemistry. Magnetic-sector mass spectrometers are most common because these provide the best precision in isotope ratio ...

An unsupervised machine learning approach to iron meteorite classification

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 6, Page 997-1011, June 2026.
Abstract Iron meteorites are usually classified manually using bivariate elemental plots. This study extends iron meteorite classification into multi‐element space. We present a computational method for the classification of iron meteorites by applying unsupervised machine learning using density‐based cluster analysis.

Chemical Geodynamics of Granitoid Magmatism During a Pacific‐Philippine Sea Plate Transition in Southwest Japan

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Granitoid magmatism along the western Pacific margin records interactions between subduction dynamics and crust–mantle processes; however, the links between plate reorganization and magma‐source evolution remain debated. Here we integrate U–Pb zircon geochronology with Pb–Sr–Nd–Hf isotope systematics to investigate Cretaceous–Paleogene ...

Ryugu reference project: Recommendations from the measurement definition team

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 5, Page 819-848, May 2026.
Abstract Sample return missions play a significant role in planetary science by providing pristine extraterrestrial materials. JAXA's Hayabusa2 and NASA's OSIRIS‐REx missions have returned samples from the C‐type asteroids Ryugu and Bennu, respectively. The chemical and mineralogical compositions of these samples closely resemble those of CI chondrites,

Non‐innocent solvents in meteorite extractions: Evidence for artifact formation

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 4, Page 706-719, April 2026.
Abstract Solvent extraction is a cornerstone of meteoritic organic and inorganic chemistry, yet the assumption that common solvents act as chemically inert media is becoming increasingly untenable. This study reports that low‐molecular‐weight alcohols, particularly methanol and ethanol, are “non‐innocent” solvents when used to extract soluble sulfur ...

Multidisciplinary Analyses of Terrestrial Samples Used to Interpret an Inorganic Origin (Anhydrite:Ce3+) for the 304 and 325‐nm Doublet Fluorescence Detected by the Mars 2020 SHERLOC Instrument at Jezero Crater

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Doublet fluorescence at 304 and 325‐nm under deep ultraviolet (DUV) excitation was detected on Mars at Jezero crater by the Scanning Habitable Environments with Raman and Luminescence for Organics and Chemicals (SHERLOC) instrument onboard the Mars 2020 rover Perseverance.
