A geophysical investigation of the Roter Kamm impact crater, Namibia

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Roter Kamm impact crater is located in the southern Namib Desert. The crater has a diameter of 2.5 km and belongs to the category of simple, bowl‐shaped impact craters, with an elevated rim of fractured target rock. The crater's interior is completely buried beneath sediments, preventing extensive surface investigations of the bedrock ...

Rapid terrestrial weathering of the CI1 carbonaceous chondrite find Oued Chebeika 002

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Alteration of historic CI1 meteorite falls during their curation demonstrates the susceptibility of smectite‐rich carbonaceous chondrites to terrestrial exposure. The discovery of Oued Chebeika 002 in Morocco in June 2024 presents a unique opportunity to document the earliest stages of weathering of a CI1 find.

Torsional modulation of atmospheric neutrino oscillation

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics
Fermions act as sources of spacetime torsion. However, this torsion is non-dynamical and can be eliminated using its equations of motion. The resulting theory features an effective four-fermion interaction in a torsion-free background.

Sampling the volcanic plumes at Io: Impact speeds and shock conditions

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The desire to sample material from the interior of Io, by flying through its volcanic plumes, requires consideration of the flyby speed and the types of sample collection techniques that can be utilized. Low speed collection (1–2.5 km s−1) would require an orbit around Io itself, which is unlikely due to the accumulated radiation dose that ...

New evidence on the formation conditions of the Libyan Desert Glass (Western Egypt): Clues from a dendritic zircon inclusion

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Libyan Desert Glass (LDG) is an ~29 million years old, silica‐rich glass found in Western Egypt. Whether this glass formed in an impact cratering context associated with the hypervelocity collision of a cometary/asteroidal body or radiative heating during an airburst is debated. Determination of the formation temperatures and pressures of rare

Geochemical and petrographic re‐evaluation of ungrouped iron meteorites from Western Australia

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Under the current classification scheme, ungrouped irons make up ~11% of all recognized iron meteorites. A further ~7% of iron meteorites are currently classified as simply “irons” and are yet to be fully classified. To potentially classify these meteorites, newer approaches, including either statistical modeling or advanced geochemical ...
