Nanoscale space weathering features in mature lunar soil revealed by TEM and APT

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Space weathering significantly alters the optical, chemical, and structural properties of lunar regolith at micro‐ and nanoscales; yet detailed nanoscale variability within individual soils remains underexplored. Here we apply transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and atom probe tomography to four mineral grains (olivine, ilmenite, and two ...

Potassium isotopic compositions and exposure ages of evolved and silica‐rich achondrites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Some of the oldest igneous rocks in the Solar System include evolved and silica‐rich achondrites that originate from parent bodies less than 1000 km in diameter, referred to as planetesimals. While Earth was initially in a molten state and required continental crust formation and plate tectonics to generate andesite bulk compositions, evolved ...

The 40K‐K dating system: 1. Improving data interpretation using new model calculations

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The 40K‐K cosmic‐ray exposure (CRE) dating system offers a promising method for determining exposure ages of iron meteorites by combining the radioactive cosmogenic 40K with the stable cosmogenic isotopes 39K and 41K. However, earlier applications relied on semi‐empirical production models and inconsistent analytical data sets, limiting their ...

Oxygen isotope variability in the IIIAB iron meteorites and their relationship to main group pallasites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The light element distribution in planetary cores and the processes driving core evolution in rocky planets are poorly understood. Magmatic iron meteorites are samples from the cores of ancient embryonic planetesimals and therefore provide a window into the processes governing core evolution. We performed high precision oxygen isotope analyses

Microstructural evidence for multiple generations of sulfide precipitation and impact‐induced thermal alteration under acidic conditions on Asteroid Ryugu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Here we report on the microstructure and chemistry of sulfide minerals returned from asteroid (162173) Ryugu. We identify a unique sulfide population in particle A0016 composed of violarite (FeNi2S4), pyrite (FeS2), chalcopyrite (CuFeS2), pyrrhotite (Fe1‐xS), and pentlandite ([Fe,Ni]9S8).
