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

open access: yesThe 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 ...

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

open access: yesThe 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.

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

open access: yesThe 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.

Fe isotopic composition of Martian meteorites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In the present work, we have measured iron isotope compositions of a group of Martian meteorites to establish a baseline Fe-isotope fractionation pattern in the case of high-temperature igneous rocks from Mars.

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

open access: yesCleaner 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 ...

Microbial methanogenesis fueled by freshwater infiltration and oil biodegradation in the Siljan impact structure, Sweden

open access: yesDiscover Applied Sciences
Deeply fractured rocks of meteorite impact craters are suggested as prime niches for subsurface microbial colonization. Methane can be a product of such microbial communities and seeps of methane from impact craters on Earth are of strong interest as ...
