Controls on Iron‐Redox State in Martian Magmas Quantified by Mössbauer Spectroscopy, Colorimetric Wet Chemistry, and XANES Spectroscopy

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract To elucidate the relationship between oxygen fugacities (fO2) recorded in martian basalts and redox processes in the martian interior, superliquidus 100‐kPa furnace experiments on a composition similar to Humphrey (Adirondack basalt) were conducted at variable fO2 and temperature. Quenched glasses were analyzed by EPMA, Mössbauer spectroscopy,

Trace elements in the silicate minerals of the Borodino Meteorite (Н5)

Записки Горного института
Major (EPMA) and trace (SIMS) element geochemistry in olivine, low-Са pyroxene and mesostasis from porphyritic and barred chondrules, as well as the pyroxene-olivine aggregate and matrix of equilibrated ordinary Borodino chondrite (Н5) is discussed. No

Large Carbonaceous Chondrite Parent Bodies Favored by Abundance–Volatility Modeling: A Possible Chemical Signature of Pebble Accretion

The Planetary Science Journal
Primitive meteorite groups such as the Vigarano, Mighei, and Karoonda carbonaceous chondrites have enigmatic patterns of elemental abundances, with moderately volatile elements—those that transition from vapor to condensate between ∼400 and ∼900 K ...

Effects of Hydrogen on Fe‐S Alloys and Their Implications for the Martian Core

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Meteorites suggest the Martian core comprises iron (Fe) or iron‐nickel (Fe‐Ni) alloy with sulfur (S) identified as the primary light element. The InSight data revealed a larger, less dense Martian core than previously estimated, indicating additional light elements.

Quantifying the High Early Solar Cosmic-Ray Flux with Cosmogenic Neon Isotopes in Refractory Minerals

The Astrophysical Journal
An enhancement in the activity of the early young Sun resulting in a high charged particle flux has been invoked to explain excesses in spallation-induced nuclides in primitive planetary materials.

Early Solar Wind and Dynamo Magnetic Field Topology Predictions for (16) Psyche and Other Asteroids

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Asteroid (16) Psyche is a metal‐rich body that might record an ancient coherent magnetization if some relict crust or mantle is preserved. Herein, we use magnetohydrodynamic simulations to predict (16) Psyche's field topology for several distinct pathways: (i) an early solar wind‐induced magnetization imparted after a larger body was impacted,

Exploring the Neutrino Mass Hierarchy from Isotopic Ratios of Supernova Nucleosynthesis Products in Presolar Grains

The Astrophysical Journal
We study the nucleosynthesis in a core-collapse supernova (CCSN) model including newly calculated neutrino-induced reaction rates with both collective and Mikheyev–Smirnov–Wolfenstein neutrino flavor oscillations considered.

Exploring the Interior Structure of (16) Psyche Through Basin‐Scale Collisions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Asteroid (16) Psyche, the largest member of the M/X‐type asteroids, may be the leftover core of a differentiated planetesimal. As such (16) Psyche will be explored in detail by NASA's discovery‐class Psyche mission in 2029. This will be the first mission to orbit a metal‐rich asteroid, or any asteroid in the 100–500 km size range.

Development of a mineralogically replicated Martian regolith simulant informed by Martian meteorites

Cleaner Materials
Martian regolith simulants play a critical role in scientific research, payload testing, and in situ resource utilization (ISRU) experiments. However, the absence of actual Martian soil samples limits the accuracy of current simulants in replicating the ...

Experimental Hypervelocity Dust Impacts in Olivine—Multiscale Insights Into Microcrater Shock and Melting Effects From Coordinated SEM/TEM Observations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The flux of solar system meteoroids is dominated by objects less than 1 mm in diameter whose impact effects play a major role in the space weathering of airless body surfaces. These effects remain poorly characterized with respect to their dependence on the range of impact speeds for meteoroids across the inner solar system.
