Abundance, Sizes, and Major Element Compositions of Components in CR and LL Chondrites: Formation from Single Reservoirs

Denton S. Ebel, Marina E. Gemma, Samuel P. Alpert +3

Abundances, apparent sizes, and individual chemical compositions of chondrules, refractory inclusions, other objects and surrounding matrix have been determined for Semarkona (LL3.…

Properties of Original Impactors Estimated from Three-Dimensional Analysis of Whole Stardust Tracks

Michael Greenberg, Denton S. Ebel

The Stardust mission captured comet Wild 2 particles in aerogel at 6.1 km/sec. We performed high resolution three-dimensional imaging and X-ray fluorescence mapping of whole cometa…

Thermochemical Stability of Low-Iron, Manganese-Enriched Olivine in Astrophysical Environments

Denton S. Ebel, Michael K. Weisberg, John R. Beckett

Low-iron, manganese-enriched (LIME) olivine grains are found in cometary samples returned by the Stardust mission to comet 81P/Wild 2. Similar grains are found in primitive meteori…
