First Optical Constants of Laboratory-generated Organic Refractory Materials (Tholins) Produced in the NASA Ames COSmIC Facility from the Visible to the Near Infrared (0.4–1.6 μm): Application to Titan’s Aerosols

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal, 2023
We have measured the complex refractive indices, from 0.4 to 1.6 μm, of five laboratory-generated organic refractory materials (tholins) produced at low temperature (150 K) using plasma chemistry in the stream of a supersonic expansion in NASA Ames ...

Breaking Degeneracies in Formation Histories by Measuring Refractory Content in Gas Giants

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Relating planet formation to atmospheric composition has been a long-standing goal of the planetary science community. So far, most modeling studies have focused on predicting the enrichment of heavy elements and the C/O ratio in giant planet atmospheres.

Disk transport rates from Ti isotopic signatures of refractory inclusions

open access: yesMeteoritics & Planetary Science, 2022
The early solar system was a dynamic period during which the formation of early solids set into motion the process of planet building. Although both astrophysical observations and theoretical modeling demonstrate the presence of widespread transport of ...

Survival of presolar p-nuclide carriers in the nebula revealed by stepwise leaching of Allende refractory inclusions

open access: yesScience Advances, 2021
Step leaching of fine-grained refractory inclusions from Allende reveals the presence of large 84Sr anomalies. The 87Rb-87Sr radiochronometer provides key insights into the timing of volatile element depletion in planetary bodies, yet the unknown ...

A super‐refractory inclusion containing nonstoichiometric spinel from the CO3.0 chondrite Yamato 81020

open access: yesMeteoritics and Planetary Science, 2021
We studied a unique super‐refractory inclusion with a core‐mantle structure from CO3.0 Yamato 81020 by secondary ion mass spectrometry, electron microprobe, and scanning electron microscope techniques.

From stellar nebula to planets: the refractory components [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We computed the abundance of refractory elements in planetary bodies formed in stellar systems with solar chemical composition by combining models for chemical composition and planet formation.

Nongravitational Forces in Planetary Systems [PDF]

open access: yesThe Planetary Science Journal
Nongravitational forces play surprising and, sometimes, centrally important roles in shaping the motions and properties of small planetary bodies. In the solar system, the morphologies of comets, the delivery of meteorites, and the shapes and dynamics of

Beckettite, Ca2V6Al6O20, a new mineral in a Type A refractory inclusion from Allende and clues to processes in the early solar system

open access: yesMeteoritics and Planetary Science, 2021
Beckettite (Ca2V6Al6O20; IMA 2015‐001) is a newly discovered refractory mineral, occurring as micrometer‐sized grains intergrown with hibonite and perovskite, and surrounded by secondary grossular, anorthite, coulsonite, hercynite, and corundum.

The formation of boundary clinopyroxenes and associated glass veins in type B1 CAIs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We used focused ion beam thin section preparation and scanning transmission electron microscopy (FIB/STEM) to examine the interfacial region between spinel and host melilite for spinel grains in type B1 inclusions from the Allende and Leoville ...

Geochemistry and petrogenesis of the Feshark intrusion (NE Isfahan city)

open access: yesJournal of Economic Geology, 2017
Introduction Granitic rocks are the most abundant rock types in various tectonic settings and they have originated from mantle-derived magmas and/or partial melting of crustal rocks.
