New knowledge about shock events that affected the L‐chondrite parent body from two heavily shocked L6 meteorite finds

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We report new results from a study of shock‐related features in the L6 ordinary chondrites Northwest Africa (NWA) 4672 and NWA 12841. Our observations confirm the occurrence of eight high‐pressure (HP) minerals in each meteorite, namely, ringwoodite, majorite, akimotoite, wadsleyite, albitic jadeite, lingunite, tuite, and xieite.

Cosmic ray exposure and gas retention ages of the shocked angrite Northwest Africa 7203: Implications for a collisional history of angrites' parent body

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Angrites and eucrites are among the oldest basaltic rocks in the solar system. However, the shock histories of these meteorite groups differ markedly, as most angrites show little to no evidence of shock metamorphism. While some angrites exhibit weak wavy extinction in olivine, indicative of low‐level shock, only two—Northwest Africa (NWA ...

The fall of the Haag (LL4‐6) chondrite breccia—Just 8 years after the nearby fall Stubenberg (LL6)

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract On October 24, 2024, an impressive fireball was visible over Austria. After the possible strewn field was calculated, the first sample of the Haag meteorite, with a mass of 8.76 g, was discovered on November 2, 2024, 8 days after the fireball event. Four more samples were found afterward putting the total sample mass at about 151 g.

Gamma-ray burst variability above 4 MeV [PDF]

open access: yes
The relationship between the hard X-ray and gamma ray emissions during four bursts using the anti-coincidence shields of the High Energy Astronomy Observatory 3 (HEAO 3) Gamma Ray Spectrometer is explored.

Study of Silicon Photomultipliers for the GRIPS Calorimeter Module

open access: yesActa Polytechnica, 2013
GRIPS is a proposed gamma-ray (200 keV to 80 MeV) astronomy mission, which incorporates a pair-creation and Compton scattering telescope, along with X-ray and infrared telescopes.

TeV Analysis of a Source-rich Region with the HAWC Observatory: Is HESS J1809-193 a Potential Hadronic PeVatron?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
HESS J1809-193 is an unidentified TeV source, first detected by the High Energy Stereoscopic System (H.E.S.S.) collaboration. The emission originates in a source-rich region that includes several supernova remnants (SNRs) and pulsars including SNR G11.1 ...

Parent body thermal metamorphism of enstatite chondrites: Disentangling the effects of shock melting

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Enstatite chondrites (ECs) formed on at least two parent bodies, EH and EL. After the accretion of the EC parent bodies, EC material was subjected to varying degrees of parent body thermal metamorphism (measured by petrologic types 3–6), due to heat released by radioactive isotope decay.

The effect of pressure on dihedral angle between liquid Fe‐S and orthopyroxene: Implication for percolative core formation in planetesimals and planetary embryos

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract During precursor stages of planet formation, many planetesimals and planetary embryos are considered to have differentiated, forming an iron‐alloy core and silicate mantle. Percolation of liquid iron‐alloy in solid silicates is one of the major possible differentiation processes in these small bodies.
