Rapidly evolving composition of nebular infall recorded by magnesium isotopes in refractory inclusions
As the oldest solids formed in our Solar System, refractory inclusions provide direct evidence of the earliest stages of its evolution. We show that...
Disentangling dissociative and nondissociative reaction dynamics in molecular mutual neutralization reactions between CO+ and O−
The products and dynamics in mutual neutralization (MN) of CO+with O−occurring in planetary atmospheres and cometary comae are unknown, accessible only through new approaches...
Differences in physiological tolerance to global warming caused the Permian–Triassic transition between the Paleozoic and Modern faunas
The well-established faunal turnover event between the Paleozoic fauna (e.g., brachiopods, crinoids) and the Modern fauna (e.g., clams, snails, urchins) coincided with intense global...
