Sub-Zero Alteration in an Isotopically Heavy Brine Preserved in a Pristine H Chondrite Xenolith [PDF]
Introduction: Brecciated H chondrites host a variety of xenoliths, including unshocked, phyllo- silicate-rich carbonaceous chondrites (CCs). The brecciated H chondrite Zag (H3-6) is one of two chondrites to host macroscopic (1 - 5mm), xenolithic crystals

Insights into secondary reactions occurring during atmospheric ablation of micrometeoroids [PDF]
Ablation of micrometeoroids during atmospheric entry yields volatile gases such as water, carbon dioxide, and sulfur dioxide, capable of altering atmospheric chemistry and hence the climate and habitability of the planetary surface.

The beidellite-saponite series: an experimental approach
The study of the octahedral Al-Mg series in smectites was conducted using synthesis methods at 200-250°C. All synthesized clays were tetrahedrally charged thus leading to a solid-solution between beidellite and saponite end-members. The TEM chemical microanalyses indicated that the Al-Mg series was continuous between these two end-members without ...

Aqueous Alteration in the Kuiper Belt: Evidence from Hydrated Interplanetary Dust Particles [PDF]
Edgeworth-Kuiper belt objects (EKBOs) formed in the outer reaches of the protoplanetary disk and thus avoided much of the high tempera-ture processing experienced by bodies in the inner solar system.
