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

Raman Study of the Slobodka Ordinary Chondrite
The texture and mineral chemistry of Slobodka are most consistent with L4 chondrites, exhibiting strong shock metamorphism characteristic of shock stage S4, including irregular and planar fractures, undulatory extinction, and mosaicism in olivine, pyroxene, and plagioclase.

Low‐Frequency Raman Spectra of Natural Pyrrhotites: Polarization Dependence for Its Lattice Modes
The present study found low‐wavenumber Raman modes of pyrrhotite Fe1‐xS at ~68, ~87, ~117, and ~230 cm−1 for the first time, thanks to a lab‐built Raman spectrometer, in which the optical path of the incident laser was purged by Ar gas. The sufficiently high signal‐to‐noise and signal‐to‐base ratios enabled us to obtain the polarization dependence of ...

Formation of nickel–iron meteorites by chemical fluid transport
The deposition of solid material from the gas phase via chemical vapor transport (CVT) is a well-known process of industrial and geochemical relevance. There is strong evidence that this type of thermodynamically driven chemical transport reaction plays ...

The Marseilles Meteorite [PDF]
IT will probably occur to most of your readers, as it immedidiately suggested itself to me, on reading in your journal of the 5th inst. a description from Les Mondes of a remarkable meteorite observed at Marseilles by M. Coggia, on the 1st of August last, that the bright object having an apparent diameter, at first of about 15′, and at last of a little

ABSTRACT Complex organic mixtures are found in many areas of research, such as energy, environment, health, planetology, and cultural heritage, to name but a few. However, due to their complex chemical composition, which holds an extensive potential of information at the molecular level, their molecular characterization is challenging.

The Temperature of Meteorites [PDF]
DURING the early part of the year 1901, when I was on the staff of the Elswick Works, it occurred to me that it would be useful and interesting if a connection could be made between the conditions of the flight of artillery shells and of meteorites. Later in the same year I made a preliminary mathematical investigation into the matter, and as a result ...

The pre-atmospheric size of Martian meteorites [PDF]
The pre-atmospheric size of martian meteorites was calculated based on 80Kr produced by epithermal secondary cosmic-ray produced neutrons of 30-300 eV energy.
