Deciphering KBO from Asteroidal Material: What Olivine and Pyroxene Compositions from Wild 2 and Chondrite Matrix Reveal
Abstract
Based on olivine and pyroxene compositions in Wild 2 and a comprehensive suite of chondrite matrix, we report the six most distinct characteristics and meteorite-specific affinities for Wild 2. A general asteroidal "mishmash" model for KBOs is given.
