The great isotopic dichotomy of the early Solar System

TS Kruijer, T Kleine, LE Borg - Nature Astronomy, 2020 - nature.com
The isotopic composition of meteorites and terrestrial planets holds important clues about
the earliest history of the Solar System and the processes of planet formation. Recent work …

The isotopic dichotomy between non-carbonaceous (NC) and carbonaceous (CC)
meteorites indicates that meteorite parent bodies derive from two genetically distinct …

Water in star-forming regions: physics and chemistry from clouds to disks as probed by Herschel spectroscopy

EF van Dishoeck, LE Kristensen, JC Mottram… - Astronomy & …, 2021 - aanda.org
Context. Water is a key molecule in the physics and chemistry of star and planet formation,

Ryugu's nucleosynthetic heritage from the outskirts of the Solar System

T Hopp, N Dauphas, Y Abe, J Aléon… - Science …, 2022 - science.org
Little is known about the origin of the spectral diversity of asteroids and what it says about
conditions in the protoplanetary disk. Here, we show that samples returned from Cb-type …

Earth's water may have been inherited from material similar to enstatite chondrite meteorites

L Piani, Y Marrocchi, T Rigaudier, LG Vacher… - Science, 2020 - science.org
The origin of Earth's water remains unknown. Enstatite chondrite (EC) meteorites have
similar isotopic composition to terrestrial rocks and thus may be representative of the …

Planetesimal rings as the cause of the Solar System's planetary architecture

A Izidoro, R Dasgupta, SN Raymond, R Deienno… - Nature …, 2022 - nature.com
Astronomical observations reveal that protoplanetary disks around young stars commonly
have ring-and gap-like structures in their dust distributions. These features are associated …

Planet formation theory in the era of ALMA and Kepler: from pebbles to exoplanets

J Drazkowska, B Bitsch, M Lambrechts… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2022 - arxiv.org
