The Explorer's Guide to Impact Craters
, 2005 Impact cratering is a fundamental geologic process of our solar system. It competes with other processes, such as plate tectonics, volcanism, fluvial, glacial and eolian activity, in shaping the surfaces of planetary bodies.

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.Black‐tailed prairie dogs are highly social ground squirrels that excavate communal burrow systems, most often in medium‐textured soils. Their forelimbs demonstrate morphofunctional trade‐offs for scratch‐digging and terrestrial ecology, including well‐developed and fast‐contracting proximal musculature with large mechanical advantage paired with ...

Biomaterials for Reconstructive Treatment of Peri‐Implantitis
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.Reconstructive therapy should be implemented in contained defects. Various bone filler materials with or without a barrier membrane and/or adjunctive biologics may be applied. ABSTRACT Peri‐implantitis is a pathological condition affecting the tissues surrounding dental implants, marked by inflammation of the peri‐implant connective tissue and ...

Noble gases and nitrogen in material from asteroid Bennu
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract We report the elemental and isotopic abundances of all stable noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon) in eight particles from asteroid Bennu returned by NASA's OSIRIS‐REx mission. We also report nitrogen abundances and isotopic ratios that were analyzed alongside neon and argon in four additional Bennu particles.

Impact cratering experiments into highly porous bodies
, 2011 Asteroids represent both an opportunity and a risk. Their pristine environment captures the early collision evolution of the solar system; while their inherent ground impact potential could result in the mass extinction of life.

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract The majority of planetary impacts occur at oblique angles. Impact structures on Earth are commonly eroded or buried, rendering the identification of the direction and angle of impact—using methods such as asymmetries in ejecta distribution, surface topographic expression, central uplift structure, and geophysical anomalies—challenging. In this

Vertical profiling of shock attenuation at the Rochechouart impact structure, France
Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.Abstract Rochechouart, south‐west France, is a complex impact structure. Here, we present the first report of shock barometry of quartz from what are likely parautochthonous basement units at depth, based on samples from the 2017 C.I.R.I.R drilling campaign. The crystallographic orientations of 725 sets of PDFs in 512 quartz grains in samples from four
