Terrestrial exposure of a fresh Martian meteorite causes rapid changes in hydrogen isotopes and water concentrations [PDF]
Determining the hydrogen isotopic compositions and H2O contents of meteorites and their components is important for addressing key cosmochemical questions about the abundance and source(s) of water in planetary bodies.

Silica-rich volcanism in the early solar system dated at 4.565 Ga
Achondritic meteorites can record volcanism and crust formation on planetesimals in the early Solar System. Here, the authors date the Northwest Africa 11119 meteorite with an Al-Mg age of 4564.8 ± 0.3 Ma indicating that this is the earliest evidence of ...

Evaluation of Geomorphological Evidences for Possible Impact Crater of Zirouki in Sistan and Baluchestan, SE Iran [PDF]
Despite the extensive studies on geomorphological phenomena in Iran, since investigation of meteorite impact craters h not been considered. Based on both remote sensing technique and field work we have recognized the circular structure of Zirouki crater ...

Emergent Chemical Reactivity and Complexity of RNA Condensates
RNA condensates capable of substrate enrichment and catalysis modulate their environment. Could this start a catalytic selection loop or evolution? Abstract The RNA world hypothesis posits the existence of life‐like assemblies that consisted mostly of RNA.

ABSTRACT Isochrones, equal‐age curves, are widely used in astrophysics to estimate stellar ages. Classical stellar parameters are, however, very limited in their usability for main sequence stars because of their weak age‐dependence. Here, rotation period measurements provide complementary information.

Trace element composition of troilite, iron and iron-nickel metall from meteorite Chelyabinsk
We studied the contents of trace elements in troilite, iron and in iron-nickel metal from meteorite Chelyabinsk by means of LA-ICP-MS. The features of the distribution of siderophile and chalcophile elements in sulfide and metallic phase in gray and ...
