Traces of the oxygen isotope composition of ancient air in fossilized cosmic dust
Abstract As a sub-type of micrometeorites, I-type cosmic spherules form by complete melting and oxidation of extraterrestrial Fe, Ni metal particles during their atmospheric entry. All oxygen in the resulting Fe, Ni oxides sources from the Earth’s atmosphere and hence makes them probes for the compo...
