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

Isotopic Compositions of Cometary Matter Returned by Stardust

TL;DR: Hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen isotopic compositions are heterogeneous among comet 81P/Wild 2 particle fragments; however, extreme isotopic anomalies are rare, indicating that the comet is not a pristine aggregate of presolar materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lunar apatite with terrestrial volatile abundances

TL;DR: Quantitative ion microprobe measurements of late-stage apatite from lunar basalt 14053 are reported that document concentrations of H, Cl and S that are indistinguishable from apatites in common terrestrial igneous rocks, suggesting portions of the lunar mantle or crust are more volatile-rich than previously thought.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intercalibration of FTIR and SIMS for hydrogen measurements in glasses and nominally anhydrous minerals

TL;DR: In this article, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and ion microprobe/secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) analyses of 1 H in 61 natural and experimental geological samples are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct measurement of hydroxyl in the lunar regolith and the origin of lunar surface water

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and secondary ion mass spectrometry analyses of Apollo samples that reveal the presence of significant amounts of hydroxyl in glasses formed in the lunar regolith by micrometeorite impacts.
