AGU 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.

Possible Ribose Synthesis in Carbonaceous Planetesimals
Life, 2022 The origin of life might be sparked by the polymerization of the first RNA molecules in Darwinian ponds during wet-dry cycles. The key life-building block ribose was found in carbonaceous chondrites.

Classification of meteorites by petrophysical methods [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1983 The low field magnetic susceptibility, natural remanent magnetization (NRM) and bulk density were measured for 75 meteorite samples from 54 meteorites ranging from achondrites through chondrites and stony-irons to irons.

The breakup of the L-chondrite parent body 466 Ma and its terrestrial effects – a search for a mid-Ordovician biodiversity event [PDF]
Estonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023 About a third of all meteorites that fall on Earth today, the stony L-chondrites, originate from a major breakup event in the asteroid belt 466 Ma, in the early Darriwilian.

On the survivability and detectability of terrestrial meteorites on the moon [PDF]
, 2008 Materials blasted into space from the surface of early Earth may preserve a unique record of our planet's early surface environment. Armstrong et al. (2002) pointed out that such materials, in the form of terrestrial meteorites, may exist on the Moon and

An Updated Catalog of Rayed Craters on Mars
Earth and Space Science, 2023 Martian meteorites represent the only samples of Mars available for study in terrestrial laboratories. In addition to their crystallization and surface ejection ages, these samples provide a detailed understanding of the geochemistry of the martian crust.

Oxygen Isotopes and Volatiles in Martian Meteorite [PDF]
, 2013 Oxygen isotopes were measured in mineral separates from martian meteorites using laser fluorination and were found to be remarkably uniform in both δ18O and Δ17O, suggesting that martian magmas did not assimilate aqueously altered crust regardless of any

The Prevailing Catalytic Role of Meteorites in Formamide Prebiotic Processes
Life, 2018 Meteorites are consensually considered to be involved in the origin of life on this Planet for several functions and at different levels: (i) as providers of impact energy during their passage through the atmosphere; (ii) as agents of geodynamics ...
