Oxygen isotope variability in the IIIAB iron meteorites and their relationship to main group pallasites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2393-2405, September 2026.
Abstract The light element distribution in planetary cores and the processes driving core evolution in rocky planets are poorly understood. Magmatic iron meteorites are samples from the cores of ancient embryonic planetesimals and therefore provide a window into the processes governing core evolution. We performed high precision oxygen isotope analyses

Microstructural evidence for multiple generations of sulfide precipitation and impact‐induced thermal alteration under acidic conditions on Asteroid Ryugu

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2201-2217, September 2026.
Abstract Here we report on the microstructure and chemistry of sulfide minerals returned from asteroid (162173) Ryugu. We identify a unique sulfide population in particle A0016 composed of violarite (FeNi2S4), pyrite (FeS2), chalcopyrite (CuFeS2), pyrrhotite (Fe1‐xS), and pentlandite ([Fe,Ni]9S8).

Nature, origin, and phosphorylation potential of the phosphorus/sulfur‐bearing nanoscale multiphasic assemblages in the CM chondrites Murchison and Murray

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2303-2335, September 2026.
Abstract Carbonaceous chondrites contain phosphorus, whose speciation and thus history remain to be investigated. Phosphorus/sulfur‐bearing assemblages have been reported in carbonaceous CM chondrites, but there is no consensus about their exact compositions and origins.

The first discovery of a shocked, metasomatised CV3 chondrule‐fragment in a (Al,Cu)‐bearing micrometeorite

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2269-2283, September 2026.
Abstract We report the discovery of the second (Al,Cu)‐alloy–bearing micrometeorite, FB‐A2, recovered from Mount Gariglione (southern Italy), representing the sixth such occurrence worldwide. Although chondritic in nature, FB‐A2 differs markedly from previously described microspherules.

Crystals in meteorites

open access: yes, 2005
Crystals forming various types of meteorites have been presented. Meteorites from Polish collections, and meteorites from falls and finds in Poland have been used as examples of extraterrestrial ...

Characterization of coesite‐bearing impact melt glass from the Hapcheon crater, Korea: Trimodal phase architecture, shock metamorphism, and implications for 40Ar/39Ar geochronology

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2233-2257, September 2026.
Abstract We present the first micrometer‐scale, phase‐resolved compositional characterization of impact melt glass from the Hapcheon crater (~1.4 km apparent diameter), the first confirmed impact structure on the Korean Peninsula, integrating EPMA‐WDS (5 μm spot), confocal Raman spectroscopy (<1 μm spot), XRD, and 40Ar/39Ar step‐heating geochronology ...

Geophysical update of the diameter of the Zhamanshin impact structure, Kazakhstan

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2284-2302, September 2026.
Abstract The rim of the 0.9‐Ma‐old Zhamanshin impact crater in Kazakhstan is considered to be almost completely exposed via a series of hills surrounding a central flat area, indicating an apparent diameter of 14 km. This would make Zhamanshin the second largest impact crater of the Quaternary period. However, the overall geometry of these hills is not

Shock effects in iron meteorites – Morasko and Jankowo Dolne meteorites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Iron meteorites are the only ones to be linked with terrestrial impact craters. As studies show, over half of all iron meteorites shows signs of being shocked some time in their history to pressures over 130 kb. This paper is a short review of main shock

Mare versus highland lunar impact flash light curve dichotomy

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
We performed a comprehensive analysis of lunar impact flash (LIF) light curve shapes and their dependence on the lunar terrain, using the large sample of LIFs detected by NELIOTA over the last 9 years. We classified 124 multi-frame light curves into mare,

Peculiarities of the composition and genesis of the Brahin meteorite

open access: yesУчёные записки Казанского университета: Серия Естественные науки, 2018
A polished plate of the Brahin meteorite from the collection of the Geological Museum of the Institute of Geology and Petroleum Technologies of Kazan Federal University has been studied with the use of microprobe analysis.
