Comparative mineral chemistry of IDPs, micrometeorites and meteorite matrices
Chondritic porous aggregates are one subclass of Interplanetary Dust Particles (IDPs). The remaining classes presently identified are hydrated IDPs consisting mainly of serpentine or smectite. We have been investigating mineral compositions in these types of IDPs, in micrometeorites from Antarctica...
