STELLAR MgSiO3 PEROVSKITE: A SHOCK-TRANSFORMED STARDUST SILICATE FOUND IN A METEORITE

We have discovered an isotopically highly anomalous MgSiO3 grain in the ungrouped carbonaceous chondrite Acfer 094 with a perovskite-like crystal structure resembling the dominant high-pressure mineral of the Earth’s lower mantle. Oxygen isotopic ratios of the silicate grain are O/ O p (4.91 0.36) # 10 (12 times the 3 solar value) and O/O p (1.36 0.19) # 10 (0.4 times the solar value). This sig...

Comparing OMI-TOMS and OMI-DOAS total ozone column data

[1] The Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) project team uses two total ozone retrieval algorithms in order to maintain the long-term record established with Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS) data as well as to improve the ozone column estimate using the hyperspectral capability of OMI. The purpose of this study is to assess where the algorithms produce comparable results and where the diff...

OMI Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document Volume II OMI Ozone Products

Preface Background The Ozone Monitoring Instrument OMI is a Dutch-Finnish ozone monitoring instrument that will fly on NASA's Aura Mission, part of the Earth Observation System (EOS), scheduled for launch in January 2004. OMI's measurements of ozone columns and profiles, aerosols, clouds, surface UV irradiance, and the trace gases NO 2 , SO 2 , HCHO, BrO, and OClO fit well into Aura's mission g...

HtrA2/Omi, a Sheep in Wolf's Clothing

Mammalian mitochondrial HtrA2/Omi was originally described as an apoptosis inducer, but rather than having extra cells, mice with mutant HtrA2/Omi suffer from a neurodegenerative disease due to progressive mitochondrial damage. This suggests that instead of promoting cell death by antagonizing inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) proteins, the primary function of HtrA2/Omi is to handle misfolded protei...
