Granular titanite from the Roter Kamm crater in Namibia: Product of regional metamorphism, not meteorite impact by Aaron J. Cavosie, Christopher J. Spencer, Noreen Evans, Kai Rankenburg, Robert J. Thomas, Paul H. Macey

“…Accessory minerals with so-called granular texture have risen in importance as geochronological tools for U-Pb dating of meteorite impact events. Grain-scale recrystallization, typically triggered by a combination of high-strain deformation and post-impact heating, can create a polycrystalline microstructure consisting of neoblasts that expel radiogenic Pb, which are thus ideal for isotopic dating. …”

Deuterium Isotope Fractionation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons in Meteorites as an Indicator of Interstellar/Protosolar Processing History by Heather V. Graham, Jamie E. Elsila, Jason P. Dworkin, Scott A. Sandford, Jose C. Aponte

“…Deuterium enrichment in meteoritic organics could be a residual signal of synthetic reactions occurring in the cold interstellar medium or an indicator of hydrothermal parent-body reactions. δD values have been measured in grains and bulk samples for a wide range of meteorites; however, these reservoirs are highly variable and may have experienced fractionation during thermal and/or aqueous alteration. …”

Nickel isotopes in iron meteorites-nucleosynthetic anomalies in sulphides with no effects in metals and no trace of Fe-60 by Quitte, G, Meier, M, Latkoczy, C, Halliday, A, Gunther, D

“…Based on our sampling they seem more prevalent in, but not exclusive to, non-magmatic iron meteorites and could reflect admixing of less than 0.4 ppm pure s-process component into "normal" Ni on meteorite parent bodies. …”

Fe isotope fractionation in iron meteorites: New insights into metal-sulphide segregation and planetary accretion by Williams, H, Markowski, A, Quitte, G, Halliday, A, Teutsch, N, Levasseur, S
