Structure of shock compressed model basaltic glass: Insights from O K-edge X-ray Raman scattering and high-resolution 27Al NMR spectroscopy
[1] The detailed atomic structures of shock compressed basaltic glasses are not well understood. Here, we explore the structures of shock compressed silicate glass with a diopside–anorthite eutectic composition (Di64An36), a common Fe-free model basaltic composition, using oxygen K-edge X-ray Raman scattering and highresolution Al solid-state NMR spectroscopy and report previously unknown detai...

متن کاملRaman spectroscopy for future planetary exploration: photodegradation, self-absorption and quantification of carotenoids in microorganisms and mineral matrices
Carotenoids are among the key biomarkers in the search for life on other planets, and non-destructive Raman spectroscopy on future rover missions is a potential sensitive detection method, especially under resonant conditions. In this research, reflectance spectra of minerals and microorganisms were measured using ultraviolet/visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy in order to evaluate potenti...
متن کاملTime-resolved Raman spectroscopy for in situ planetary mineralogy.
Planetary mineralogy can be revealed through a variety of remote sensing and in situ investigations that precede any plans for eventual sample return. We briefly review those techniques and focus on the capabilities for on-surface in situ examination of Mars, Venus, the Moon, asteroids, and other bodies. Over the past decade, Raman spectroscopy has continued to develop as a prime candidate for ...
متن کاملRaman Spectroscopic Techniques for Planetary Exploration: Detecting Microorganisms through Minerals.
Raman spectroscopy can provide highly specific chemical fingerprints of inorganic and organic materials and is therefore expected to play a significant role in interplanetary missions, especially for the search for life elsewhere in our solar system. A major challenge will be the unambiguous detection of low levels of biomarkers on a mineral background. In addition, these biomarkers may not be ...
