All chondrites accreted∼ 3.5 wt.% C in their matrices, the bulk of which was in a
macromolecular solvent and acid insoluble organic material (IOM). Similar material to IOM is …

Chondritic meteorites (chondrites) contain evidence for the interaction of liquid water with
the interiors of small bodies early in Solar System history. Here we review the processes …

The relative differences in the degree of hydration should be reflected in any classification
scheme for aqueously altered meteorites. Here we report the bulk mineralogies and degree …

Renazzo-type carbonaceous (CR) chondrites are distinct from most other chondrites in
having younger chondrule 26 Al-26 Mg ages, but the significance of these ages and whether …

We report on the mineralogy, petrography, and in situ measured oxygen-and magnesium-
isotope compositions of eight porphyritic chondrules (seven FeO-poor and one FeO-rich) …

We report the bulk C abundances, and C and O isotopic compositions of carbonates in 64
CM chondrites, 14 CR chondrites, 2 CI chondrites, LEW 85332 (C2), Kaba (CV 3), and …

Determining compositional trends among individual minerals is key to understanding the
thermodynamic conditions under which they formed and altered, and is also essential to …

Compared to the composition of CI chondrites and the Sun, all other carbonaceous
chondrites are variably depleted in volatile elements. However, the origin of these …

Sugars and their derivatives are essential to all terrestrial life. Their presence in meteorites,
together with amino acids, nucleobases, amphiphiles, and other compounds of biological …

To better understand the formation conditions of ferromagnesian chondrules from the
Renazzo‐like carbonaceous (CR) chondrites, a systematic study of 210 chondrules from 15 …
