Pulse-laser irradiation experiments of Murchison CM2 chondrite for reproducing space weathering on C-type asteroids
We performed pulse-laser irradiation experiments of a primitive meteorite to simulate space weathering by micrometeorite bombardments on C-type asteroids. Pellets of powdered Murchison CM2 chondrite were set in vacuum and exposed to pulse laser with a diameter of 0.5 mm and delivered energies of 5, 10, and 15 mJ. We measured reflectance spectra of unirradiated and irradiated surfaces of the pel...
متن کاملMagnesium Isotope Compositions of Chondrules from the Murchison and Murray Carbonaceous Chondrites
Introduction: High-precision Mg isotope compositions of meteorites and their components can provide unique constraints on the time scales and processes involved in their formation [1]. Since the advent of multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (MC-ICPMS), there have been several reports of high-precision analyses of the mass-dependent fractionation of Mg isotopes in chondru...
متن کاملPristine Pre-accretionary Signatures in Cm Chondrite Silicates: a Common Parent-body with the Co Chondrites?
Introduction: The Mighei-like carbonaceous (CM) chondrites are one of the most abundant and aqueously altered group of carbonaceous chondrites [1–4]. The organic molecules present and the effects of aqueous alteration have been extensively studied in the CM chondrites [e.g., 1,3,5]. As many CM chondrites are extensively aqueously altered, the compositions and formation histories of their anhydr...
متن کاملOrganic Molecular Indicators of Aqueous Alteration: Extensive Pyrolysis Survey
Introduction: A variety of spectroscopic techniques have revealed that variations in functional group chemistry of insoluble organic matter (IOM) among the groups and sub-types of chondrites sensitively respond to secondary processes, including aqueous alteration [1] and thermal metamorphism [2]. However, such variations are minimal within the same meteorite group [3], unlike mineralogical stud...
متن کاملPetrographic, chemical and spectroscopic evidence for thermal metamorphism in carbonaceous chondrites I: CI and CM chondrites
We present a comprehensive description of petrologic, chemical and spectroscopic features of thermally metamorphosed CI-like and CM (and CM-like) chondrites. Only two such CI chondrites have so far been discovered i.e. Y-86029 and Y82162. Thermal metamorphism in these chondrites is apparent in their low contents of H2O, C and the most thermally labile trace elements, partial dehydration of matr...
