Tracking Deep Mantle Melting on Mars Using Phobos Tides
Abstract We study the deep internal structure and rheological state of Mars by analyzing its response to tidal forces exerted by Phobos and by introducing a melt fraction in the mantle layers. Motivated by recent seismic evidence for a basal molten layer near the base of the Martian mantle, we explore the distribution of melt within the mantle and its ...

Meteorites and the Antarctic ice sheet [PDF]
The majority of the meteorite finds were located in the Allan Hills site. All the expected goals involving the recovery of rare or previously unknown types of meteorites, and even the recovery of lunar ejecta, were realized.

Lunar and Martian meteorites [PDF]
Meteorites are material from the times of the formation of the solar system. Their study gives us information of the conditions of the early solar system, which is otherwise very difficult to obtain.

ABSTRACT The Carri Laufquen Lakes System is a highly alkaline, basalt‐hosted lacustrine environment in northern Patagonia, Argentina. Diverse morphologies of Late Pleistocene sub‐fossil stromatolites occur along the lakeshores. Using detailed optical and electron microscopy, spectroscopy and organic geochemical analyses, this study shows that ...

Weathering of stony meteorites in Antarctica [PDF]
Weathering produces undesirable physical, chemical, and isotopic changes that might disturb the records of cosmochemical evolution that are sought in meteorites. Meteorites are physically disintegrated by crack propagation phenomena, including ice riving

Effects of motor and cognitive‐motor training on cognitive performance in healthy older adults
Abstract With a rapidly aging global population, identifying effective strategies to preserve cognitive health and functional independence is increasingly important. This study investigated the effects of motor and combined cognitive‐motor training on cognitive performance and well‐being in healthy older adults against a control condition. Participants

The 40K‐K dating system: 1. Improving data interpretation using new model calculations
Abstract The 40K‐K cosmic‐ray exposure (CRE) dating system offers a promising method for determining exposure ages of iron meteorites by combining the radioactive cosmogenic 40K with the stable cosmogenic isotopes 39K and 41K. However, earlier applications relied on semi‐empirical production models and inconsistent analytical data sets, limiting their ...

Bolide light curve systematics from 75 recovered meteorites
Abstract How does the energy deposition profile (light curve), deceleration, and penetration depth in Earth's atmosphere depend on asteroid composition and meteorite type? Here, we present the light curve and velocity profile of 75 bolides from camera‐documented meteorite falls.
