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

Organics captured from comet 81P/Wild 2 by the Stardust spacecraft.

TL;DR: The presence of deuterium and nitrogen-15 excesses suggest that some organics have an interstellar/protostellar heritage and a diverse suite of organic compounds is present and identifiable within the returned samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bond Strengths of Ethylene and Acetylene

TL;DR: Negative ion photoelectron spectroscopy and gas-phase proton transfer kinetics were employed to determine the CH bond dissociation energies of acetylene, ethylene, and vinyl radical.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nanoscale chemical imaging of a working catalyst by scanning transmission X-ray microscopy

TL;DR: Scanning transmission X-ray microscopy can be used at atmospheric pressure and up to 350 °C to monitor in situ phase changes in a complex iron-based Fisher–Tropsch catalyst and the nature and location of carbon species produced.
