The Fine‐Scale Magnetic History of the Allende Meteorite: Implications for the Structure of the Solar Nebula

open access: yesAGU Advances, 2021
Magnetic fields in the early solar system may have driven the inward accretion of the protoplanetary disk (PPD) and generated instabilities that led to the formation of planets and ring and gap structures.

Microbial Populations of Stony Meteorites: Substrate Controls on First Colonizers

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Finding fresh, sterilized rocks provides ecologists with a clean slate to test ideas about first colonization and the evolution of soils de novo. Lava has been used previously in first colonizer studies due to the sterilizing heat required for its ...

Identifying the wide diversity of extraterrestrial purine and pyrimidine nucleobases in carbonaceous meteorites

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
All DNA/RNA nucleobases were identified in carbonaceous meteorites. Having been provided to the early Earth as a component in carbonaceous meteorites, these molecules might have played a role for the emergence of genetic functions in early life.
