Journal ArticleDOI

Comet 81P/Wild 2 under a microscope.

Donald E. Brownlee, +185 more
- 15 Dec 2006 - 
TL;DR: The Stardust spacecraft collected thousands of particles from comet 81P/Wild 2 and returned them to Earth for laboratory study, and preliminary examination shows that the nonvolatile portion of the comet is an unequilibrated assortment of materials that have both presolar and solar system origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mineralogy and petrology of comet 81P/wild 2 nucleus samples

Michael E. Zolensky, +75 more
- 15 Dec 2006 - 
TL;DR: The bulk of the comet 81P/Wild 2 samples returned to Earth by the Stardust spacecraft appear to be weakly constructed mixtures of nanometer-scale grains, with occasional much larger ferromagnesian silicates, Fe-Ni sulfides,Fe-Ni metal, and accessory phases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact features on Stardust : implications for Comet 81P/Wild 2 dust

TL;DR: Particles emanating from comet 81P/Wild 2 collided with the Stardust spacecraft at 6.1 kilometers per second, producing hypervelocity impact features on the collector surfaces that were returned to Earth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Elemental Compositions of Comet 81P/Wild 2 Samples Collected by Stardust

George J. Flynn, +79 more
- 15 Dec 2006 - 
TL;DR: The elements Cu, Zn, and Ga appear enriched in this Wild 2 material, which suggests that the CI meteorites may not represent the solar system composition for these moderately volatile minor elements.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metamictization of zircon: Raman spectroscopic study

TL;DR: Raman spectroscopy of radiation-damaged natural zircon samples shows increased line broadening and shifts of phonon frequencies with increasing radiation dose as discussed by the authors, which can be used to determine the degree of radiation damage.
