The isotopic dichotomy between non-carbonaceous (NC) and carbonaceous (CC) meteorites indicates that meteorite parent bodies derive from two genetically distinct …
The age of Jupiter, the largest planet in our Solar System, is still unknown. Gas-giant planet formation likely involved the growth of large solid cores, followed by the accumulation of gas …
Geochemical and astronomical evidence demonstrates that planet formation occurred in two spatially and temporally separated reservoirs. The origin of this dichotomy is unknown. We …
Context. Recent years have seen building evidence that planet formation starts early, in the first~ 0.5 Myr. Studying the dust masses available in young disks enables us to understand …

We present a comprehensive evolutionary model of the Sun's protoplanetary disk, constructed to resolve the" CAI storage problem" of meteoritics. We predict the abundances …
Nucleosynthetic isotope anomalies are powerful tracers to determine the provenance of meteorites and their components, and to identify genetic links between these materials. Here …
The isotopic composition of meteorites reveals a fundamental dichotomy between non- carbonaceous (NC) and carbonaceous (CC) meteorites. However, the origin of this …

Water and simple organic molecular ices dominate the mass of solid materials available for planetesimal and planet formation beyond the water snow line. Here we analyze ALMA long …
Isotopic variations usually follow mass-dependent fractionation, meaning that the relative variations in isotopic ratios scale with the difference in mass of the isotopes involved (eg …
