Congratulations, Dr. Emilie Dunham!Congratulations to Dr. Emilie Dunham, who successfully defended her doctoral thesis September 13th! To Be or not to B: Meteoritic Implications for the Galactic Environment of Solar System Formation Short-lived radionuclides (SLRs) once present in the solar nebula can be used to probe the Solar System’s galactic formation environment. Isotopic analyses reveal that the first […] |
New titanium isotope paperIn a new paper published in Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, PhD Candidate Zack Torrano and co-authors investigate whether the isotope compositions of previously analyzed calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) are representative of CAIs from other chondrites and chondrite groups and, by extension, the broader CAI-forming region in the solar nebula. CAIs are the oldest dated solids formed […] |
Congratulations, Dr. Daniel Dunlap!Congratulations to Dr. Daniel Dunlap, who successfully defended his doctoral thesis August 28! Dr. Dunlap will next undertake a post-doctoral research position at NASA Johnson Space Center. Chronology of Planetesimal Differentiation Based on the Timing of Achondrite Formation in the Early Solar System The early Solar System was a dynamic period of time during which […] |
Zack Torrano receives NASA awardCongratulations to Ph.D. candidate Zachary Torrano, recipient of a highly competitive and prestigious Future Investigators in NASA Earth and Space Science and Technology (FINESST) award! Zack's proposal, "Using three isotope systems (Cr, Ti, and O) to address two important questions in planetary science via one sample suite of ungrouped chondrites: 3, 2, 1, Go!", was […] |
