The Prebiotic Synthesis of Soluble Organic Matter in Carbonaceous Chondrites and the Influence of Asteroidal Aqueous Alteration
DownloadSpring 2018
Carbonaceous chondrite meteorites are derived from primitive asteroids in the solar system and often contain prebiotic organic compounds including amino acids, carboxylic acids, nucleobases, and smaller precursor molecules. These soluble organic compounds, synthesized via non-biological chemical...

Understanding the alteration of the Tagish Lake meteorite through mineralogy, geochemistry and oxygen isotopes
DownloadFall 2013
Our understanding of the origin and formation of the various components of meteorites, and ultimately understanding the formation of the early Solar System, comes from our knowledge of the asteroidal alteration processes and modifications that such processes induce on these components. The...
