Mineralogy, mineral chemistry, and redox equilibria in ten aggregate particles from asteroid Bennu

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Examination of 10 Bennu aggregate particles has revealed the presence of many phases which taken together can provide constraints on the oxygen fugacity (fO2) of Bennu samples. Phyllosilicates (saponite and serpentine), carbonates, oxides (magnetite, chromite), sulfides (pyrrhotite, pentlandite), phosphate (hydroxyapatite, Na‐Mg‐phosphate ...

Chromites in ordinary-chondrite fusion crusts [PDF]

European Journal of Mineralogy
Chromites from ordinary chondrites of groups H4, H5, LL5, LL6, L3.6 and L6 were studied and compared to an H5 ordinary chondrite processed to form a synthetic fusion crust.

Formation mechanisms of ringwoodite: clues from the Martian meteorite Northwest Africa 8705

Earth, Planets and Space, 2021
Ringwoodite and wadsleyite are the high-pressure polymorphs of olivine, which are common in shocked meteorites. They are the major constituent minerals in the terrestrial mantle.

Evaluating maturity of organic matter in hydrated C1 and CM‐like clasts and a dehydrated clast within a polymict eucrite and a howardite

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Volatile‐rich xenolithic clasts in different types of brecciated meteorites represent unique pristine solar system material. This study investigates the maturity and thermal history of organic matter using Raman spectroscopy and aqueous alteration effects using infrared spectroscopy in the matrix of 15 volatile‐rich clasts (C1 and CM‐like ...

Raman analysis of organic refractory materials after energetic processing: Evidence for amorphous carbon on TNOs and comets

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Amorphous carbon (αC) is found in various extraterrestrial particles, including those thought to originate from the outer Solar System. αC can form through two main processes involving C‐rich materials: exposure to energetic charged particles and thermal processing.

Mössbauer Study of Weathered H-meteorite from the Desert of Oman

Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science
A number of meteorites from the desert of Oman, classified as H-chondrites, with known and unknown ages, were studied by using 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy to determine their Fe3+-bearing compositions.

The Ames impact structure, Oklahoma: New radioisotopic constraints and implications for North American impact chronology

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The Ames impact structure (Oklahoma) is thought to have formed during the Ordovician Meteor Event, based on conodont biostratigraphy of its crater fill. Here, U–Pb zircon dates from its impact‐melt portion, conducted using secondary ion mass spectrometry and laser ablation–inductively coupled plasma–mass spectrometry (n = 37 spots), yield a ...

Two faces of L-type asteroids

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Context. L-types are a rare class of asteroids whose spectra indicate similarities with CO and CV chondrites, suggesting high abundances of refractory inclusions, particularly with respect to the calcium-aluminium-rich inclusion.
