Nucleosynthetic molybdenum isotope anomalies in iron meteorites – new evidence for thermal processing of solar nebula material

open access: yes, 2017
We have investigated nucleosynthetic Mo isotope anomalies in 38 different bulk iron meteorites from 11 groups, to produce by far the largest and most precise dataset available to date for such samples.

Reidite Formation From Zircon Subjected to 20, 40, and 60 GPa Shock Experiments

open access: yesJournal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
Structure disordering as a result of shock pressure: In zircon shocked from 20 to 60 GPa, the shock‐induced structural disorder increases with increasing shock pressure (gray area). Shock disorder of zircon is an integral part of its transformation to reidite: Reidite occurs after amorphous material.

Meteorites: Messengers from the Early Solar System

open access: yesCHIMIA, 2010
Meteorites are fragments from solar system bodies, dominantly asteroids. A small fraction is derived from the Moon and from Mars. These rocks tell a rich history of the early solar system and range from solids little changed since the earliest ...

A comprehensive study of noble gases and nitrogen in Hypatia, a diamond-rich pebble from SW Egypt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This is a follow-up study of a work by Kramers et al. (2013) on an unusual diamond-rich rock found in the SW side of the Libyan Desert Glass strewn field. This pebble, called Hypatia, is composed of almost pure carbon.

Mikrometeorite und ihr Ursprung im Sonnensystem: Außerirdischer Staub zum Anfassen

open access: yesPhysik in unserer Zeit, EarlyView.
Mit einer Größe, die der Dicke eines Haares entspricht, sind Mikrometeorite kaum sichtbar für das bloße Auge. Dennoch werden sie seit etwa 150 Jahren gesammelt, und seit wenigen Jahren sogar auf unseren Hausdächern. Als Kostproben von Asteroiden oder Kometen stellen sie wertvolle Boten unseres Sonnensystems dar.

Young asteroidal fluid activity revealed by absolute age from apatite in carbonaceous chondrite

open access: yesNature Communications, 2016
Chondritic meteorites formed in the early solar system and may tell us about primary processes at that time. Here, Zhang et al. report an absolute 207Pb/206Pb isochron age (4,450±50 Ma) of apatite from a carbonaceous chondrite constraining timing of ...

Thermal Alteration of Labile Elements in Carbonaceous Chondrites

open access: yes, 2018
Carbonaceous chondrite meteorites are some of the oldest Solar System planetary materials available for study. The CI group has bulk abundances of elements similar to those of the solar photosphere.
