Classification of meteorites by petrophysical methods [PDF]
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.

Molecular Asymmetry in Prebiotic Chemistry: An Account from Meteorites
Carbonaceous Chondrite (CC) meteorites are fragments of asteroids, solar planetesimals that never became large enough to separate matter by their density, like terrestrial planets.

An Updated Catalog of Rayed Craters on Mars
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.

The Prevailing Catalytic Role of Meteorites in Formamide Prebiotic Processes
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 ...

Small Near-Earth Asteroids as a Source of Meteorites [PDF]
Small asteroids intersecting Earth's orbit can deliver extraterrestrial rocks to the Earth, called meteorites. This process is accompanied by a luminous phenomena in the atmosphere, called bolides or fireballs.
