Recoil Loss of Cosmogenically Produced Helium and Neon in Presolar
Introduction: Presolar dust grains found in meteorites are widely considered to originate from areas beyond the solar system, an assumption mainly based on their unique isotope composition [1]. Of special interest among these grains are those consisting of silicone carbide (SiC), which represent the second most abundant type of presolar grains found in meteorites. SiC grains are usually larger ...
متن کاملMorphologies, Isotopes, Crystal Structures, and Microstructures of Presolar Al2О3 Grains: a NanoSIMS, EBSD, EDS, CL, and FIB-TEM study
Presolar grains are rare sub-micron-to-micron-sized components of primitive chondrites and interplanetary dust particles (IDPs), and are identified on the basis of their highly anomalous isotopic compositions [e.g., 1]. They formed around evolved stars prior to Solar System formation, and survived impact and radiation processing in the interstellar medium and early Solar System, before eventual...
متن کاملThe Imprint of Nova Nucleosynthesis in Presolar Grains
Infrared and ultraviolet observations of nova light curves have confirmed grain formation in their expanding shells that are ejected into the interstellar medium by a thermonuclear runaway. In this paper, we present isotopic ratios
متن کاملPresolar grains in meteorites and interplanetary dust: An overview
Small amounts of pre-solar grains have survived in the matrices of primitive meteorites and interplanetary dust particles. Their detailed study in the laboratory with modern analytical tools provides highly accurate and detailed information with regard to stellar nucleosynthesis and evolution, grain formation in stellar atmospheres, and Galactic Chemical Evolution. Their survival puts constrain...
متن کاملComprehensive Analyses of Gentle Separated Presolar Sic-grains
Introduction: Presolar grains undergo a long jour ney through interstellar space before being incorporat ed into primitive meteorites from which they are recov ered [1]. During this journey they are exposed to parti cle impacts and UV-radiation which might lead to al teration, accretion or sputtering effects leading to changes in structure and formation of coatings on the original refracto...
