Abstract
Sample-return missions allow the study of materials collected directly from celestial bodies, unbiased by atmospheric entry effects and/or terrestrial alteration and contamination phenomena, using state-of-the-art techniques which are av...
Mass spectrometry of noble gas isotopes from the asteroid materials delivered by robotic space missions requires high sensitivity, high ion transmission, low detection limit, and other characteristics not readily available in commercial instruments.

Abstract
Without a protective atmosphere, space-exposed surfaces of airless Solar System bodies gradually experience an alteration in composition, structure and optical properties through a collective process called space weathering. The return o...

Abstract
The delivery of water to the inner Solar System, including Earth, is still a debated topic. A preferential role for hydrated asteroids in this process is supported by isotopic measurements. Carbonaceous chondrite (CC) meteorites represen...
