Russian meteorite of the Bronze Age (rock record) [PDF]

open access: yesArchaeoastronomy and Ancient Technologies, 2014
This paper presents the results of the study of petroglyphs found in the quartzite grotto near the Skelnovsky small village in the Northern Black Sea in the South of Russia. The aim of the study was the analysis and interpretation of the Early Bronze Age

The effect of early diagenetic processes on the quantification of fossil micrometeorite abundance and flux in the geological record

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Fossil micrometeorites (MMs) recovered from lithified sedimentary rocks, particularly iron‐rich (I‐type) cosmic spherules (CSs) provide valuable insights into past dust‐forming events. Their abundances, when combined with estimates of local sedimentation rates can be used to reconstruct the flux of extraterrestrial dust.

Carbon Isotope Analyses of Individual Hydrocarbon Molecules in Bituminous Coal, Oil Shale and Murchison Meteorite [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 1998
To study the origin of organic matter in meteorite, terrestrial rocks which contain organic compounds similar to the ones found in carbonaceous chondrites are studied and compared with Murchison meteorite.

Small‐scale elemental abundance variations in Ryugu particles from touchdown 1

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Ryugu materials closely resemble CI chondrites' mineralogical, chemical, and isotopic compositions; yet minor but resolvable differences in certain elemental abundances are evident. In this study, the bulk chemical compositions of eight individual Ryugu particles (1.5–4.3 mg) from the first touchdown site (TD1) were determined using triple ...

Initial study of regolith exposure ages and burial conditions on Ryugu: Cosmogenic nuclides score in two touchdowns

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface processes on the asteroid Ryugu have been investigated using cosmic‐ray‐produced radionuclides, 10Be, 26Al, and 36Cl, and stable noble gases, on eight samples returned by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. The 10Be and 26Al along with 21Ne measurements indicate that the two Chamber A samples A0105 collected during the first touchdown (TD) were ...

Petrography and mineral chemistry of Northeast Africa 053—A remnant of Martian crystal mush

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract In Earth's igneous systems, crystal mushes, crystal‐rich frameworks permeated by silicate melt, represent a common and fundamental stage in the evolution of magma bodies. However, whether crystal mushes occur within Martian igneous systems and play a comparable role is unknown. Here, we present a comprehensive petrography and mineral chemistry

Model Calculations for Cosmogenic Nuclides in Meteorites and the Lunar Surface. 1. Long‐lived Radionuclides

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Production rates for the cosmogenic radionuclides 10Be, 14C, 26Al, 36Cl, 41Ca, 53Mn, and 60Fe in a large variety of meteorites, that is, ordinary chondrites (H, L, LL), carbonaceous chondrites, HED meteorites, ureilites, Martian meteorites, and iron meteorites and in the uppermost ~2 m of the lunar surface are modeled.

Terrestrial ages of meteorites from the Atacama Desert (Chile) and insights into the past meteorite flux to Earth

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Atacama Desert in Chile is characterized by its high meteorite density and old meteorite terrestrial ages. In this work, we present new terrestrial ages derived from measurements of the concentration of cosmogenic 36Cl in the metal fraction of 51 ordinary chondrites collected over a 6.8 km2 area located in the Catalina Dense Collection ...
