Transport of dust across the Solar System: Constraints on the spatial origin of individual micrometeorites from cosmic-ray exposure

Reto Georg Trappitsch, Xuan Li

The origin of micrometeorites (MMs) from asteroids and comets is well-established, but the relative contribution from these two classes remains poorly resolved. Likewise, determining the precise origin of individual MMs is an open challenge. Here, cosmic-r ...

How General Is Anomeric Retention during Collision-Induced Dissociation of Glycans?

Thomas Rizzo, Ahmed Ben Faleh, Stephan Warnke, Eduardo Carrascosa Casado, Robert Paul Pellegrinelli, Lei Yue

: Despite the essential role that glycans play in many biological processes, their isomeric com-plexity makes their structural determination partic-ularly challenging. Tandem mass spectrometry has played a central role in glycan analysis, and recent work h ...
