INTERPLANETARY DUST PARTICLES AS SAMPLES OF ICY ASTEROIDS by Vernazza, P., Marsset, M., Beck, P., Birlan, M., Brunetto, R., Djouadi, Z., Dumas, C., Merouane, S., Mousis, O., Zanda, B., Binzel, Richard P, DeMeo, Francesca E

“…Given that these particles are quite different from known meteorites, it follows that the composition of the asteroid belt consists largely of more friable material not well represented by the cohesive meteorites in our collections. …”

Initiation of plate tectonics in the Hadean: Eclogitization triggered by the ABEL Bombardment by Shigenori Maruyama, M. Santosh, Shintaro Azuma

Chondrites as samples of differentiated planetesimals by Elkins Tanton, Linda T., Zuber, Maria, Weiss, Benjamin P.

“…Ryugu is a second-generation C-type asteroid formed by the reassembly of fragments of a previous larger body in the main asteroid belt. While the majority of Ryugu samples returned by Hayabusa2 are composed of a lithology dominated by aqueously altered minerals, clasts of pristine olivine and pyroxene remain in the least-altered lithologies. …”

“…The recent Hayabusa2 sample return mission to asteroid Ryugu offers the first opportunity to study these effects, in the case of the most abundant spectral type among the main-asteroid belt, C-type objects. This study employs vibrational electron energy-loss spectroscopy in the transmission electron microscope to achieve the spatial resolution required to measure the distinct mid-infrared spectral signature of Ryugu's space-weathered surface. …”
