The Sample Analysis at Mars Investigation and Instrument Suite

Paul R. Mahaffy, +84 more
TL;DR: The Sample Analysis at Mars (SAM) investigation of the Mars Science Laboratory (MSL) addresses the chemical and isotopic composition of the atmosphere and volatiles extracted from solid samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Volatile and organic compositions of sedimentary rocks in Yellowknife Bay, Gale crater, Mars.

Douglas W. Ming, +442 more
- 24 Jan 2014 - 
TL;DR: Higher abundances of chlorinated hydrocarbons in the mudstone compared with Rocknest windblown materials previously analyzed by Curiosity suggest that indigenous martian or meteoritic organic carbon sources may be preserved in the Mudstone; however, the carbon source for the chlorinatedHydrocarbons is not definitively of martian origin.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Energetic Particles: Acceleration, Composition, and Transport (EPACT) investigation on the WIND spacecraft

TL;DR: The Energetic Particles: Acceleration, Composition, and Transport (EPACT) investigation as discussed by the authors is designed to make comprehensive observations of solar, interplanetary, and galactic particles over wide ranges of charge, mass, energy, and intensity using a combination of 8 different particle telescopes.
Journal ArticleDOI

A High-Resolution GE Spectrometer for Gamma-Ray Burst Astronomy

TL;DR: The Transient Gamma-Ray Spectrometer (TGRS) as discussed by the authors was designed to perform high resolution spectroscopy of transient gamma-ray events, such as cosmic γ-ray bursts and solar flares over the energy range 25 keV to 8.2 MeV with an expected spectroscopic resolution of ∼ 3 keV at 1 MeV.
