Refractory Phases of Micrometeorites and the ``Primitivity'' of Cometary Nuclei
Abstract
We used common characteristics of refractory phases in modern and early micrometeorites to both further constrain the scenarios proposed for the origin of the solar system and confirm that cometary nuclei are not as primitive as previously thought.
