Carbon in the core by Wood, B

“…Thus, impact heating and degassing of the protoearth should have led to an Fe-rich melt with around 2-4 wt% carbon, compared to the 0.01-0.6 wt% in iron meteorites and 0.3-3 ppm C predicted to be present in Fe condensed from the solar gas. …”

A new model of meteoric calcium in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere by J. M. C. Plane, W. Feng, W. Feng, J. C. Gómez Martín, J. C. Gómez Martín, M. Gerding, S. Raizada

“…It has been known for more than 30 years that the Ca atom layer is depleted by over 2 orders of magnitude compared with Na, despite these elements having nearly the same elemental abundance in chondritic meteorites. In contrast, the Ca⁺ ion abundance is depleted by less than a factor of 10. …”

Exploring the astrophysical energy range of the 27Al(p,α)24Mg reaction: A new recommended reaction rate by M. La Cognata, S. Palmerini, P. Adsley, F. Hammache, A. Di Pietro, P. Figuera, R. Alba, S. Cherubini, F. Dell'Agli, G.L. Guardo, M. Gulino, L. Lamia, D. Lattuada, C. Maiolino, A. Oliva, R.G. Pizzone, P.M. Prajapati, S. Romano, D. Santonocito, R. Spartá, M.L. Sergi, A. Tumino

“…It is estimated through the detection of the 1809-keV γ-line of the daughter 26Mg and from the superabundance of 26Mg in comparison with the most abundant 24Mg isotope in meteorites. Accurate knowledge of the reaction rates involving 26Al, its stable counterpart 27Al and 24Mg is then mandatory. …”

Survivability of Soil and Permafrost Microbial Communities after Irradiation with Accelerated Electrons under Simulated Martian and Open Space Conditions by Vladimir Cheptsov, Elena Vorobyova, Andrey Belov, Anatoly Pavlov, Denis Tsurkov, Vladimir Lomasov, Sergey Bulat

“…In addition, the results of the study indicate the possibility of maintaining terrestrial like life in the ice of Europa at a 10 cm depth for at least ~170 years or for at least 400 thousand years in open space within meteorites. It is established that bacteria in natural habitat has a much higher resistance to in situ irradiation with accelerated electrons when compared to their stability in pure isolated cultures. …”

Spectroscopic Links among Giant Planet Irregular Satellites and Trojans by Benjamin N. L. Sharkey, Vishnu Reddy, Olga Kuhn, Juan A. Sanchez, William F. Bottke

“…Characterizing hydrated materials in the outer solar system may provide critical context regarding the origins of hydrated CI and CM chondrite meteorites. We discuss how the hydration state(s) of the irregular satellites constrains the thermal histories of the interiors of their parent bodies, which may have formed among the primordial Kuiper Belt.…”

High-resolution X-Ray Spectroscopy of Interstellar Iron toward Cygnus X-1 and GX 339-4 by Lía Corrales, Eric V. Gotthelf, Efrain Gatuzz, Timothy R. Kallman, Julia C. Lee, Michael Martins, Frits Paerels, Ioanna Psaradaki, Stefan Schippers, Daniel Wolf Savin

“…However, fayalite is disfavored, based on the implied abundances and knowledge of ISM silicates gained by infrared astronomical observations and meteoritic studies. We conclude that iron oxides in the Fe ^3+ oxidation state are good candidates for Fe-bearing dust. …”

“…We propose that Didymos might be an LL ordinary chondrite analog containing albedo-suppressing, shock-darkened/impact melt minerals that have undergone resurfacing processes in the past. A comparison with meteorites indicates that, less likely, Didymos could also contain materials analog to carbon-bearing brecciated L3 ordinary chondrites.…”
