- The Sariçiçek howardite meteorite shower consisting of 343 documented stones occurred on September 2, 2015 in Turkey and is the first documented howardite fall. Cosmogenic isotopes show that Sariçiçek experienced a complex cosmic‐ray exposure history, exposed during ~12–14 Ma in a regolith near the surface of a parent asteroid, and that an ~1 m sized meteoroid was launched by an impact 22 ± 2 Ma ago to Earth (as did one‐third of all HED meteorites). SIMS dating of zircon and baddeleyite yielded 4550.4 ± 2.5 Ma and 4553 ± 8.8 Ma crystallization ages for the basaltic magma clasts. The apatite U‐Pb age of 4525 ± 17 Ma, K‐Ar age of ~3.9 Ga, and the U,Th‐He ages of 1.8 ± 0.7 and 2.6 ± 0.3 Ga are interpreted to represent thermal metamorphic and impact‐related resetting ages, respectively. Petrographic; geochemical; and O‐, Cr‐, and Ti‐isotopic studies confirm that Sariçiçek belongs to the normal clan of HED meteorites. Petrographic observations and analysis of organic material indicate a small portion of carbonaceous chondrite material in the Sariçiçek regolith and organic contamination of the meteorite after a few days on soil. Video observations of the fall show an atmospheric entry at 17.3 ± 0.8 km s−1 from NW; fragmentations at 37, 33, 31, and 27 km altitude; and provide a pre‐atmospheric orbit that is the first dynamical link between the normal HED meteorite clan and the inner Main Belt. Spectral data indicate the similarity of Sariçiçek with the Vesta asteroid family (V‐class) spectra, a group of asteroids stretching to delivery resonances, which includes (4) Vesta. Dynamical modeling of meteoroid delivery to Earth shows that the complete disruption of a ~1 km sized Vesta family asteroid or a ~10 km sized impact crater on Vesta is required to provide sufficient meteoroids ≤4 m in size to account for the influx of meteorites from this HED clan. The 16.7 km diameter Antionia impact crater on Vesta was formed on terrain of the same age as given by the 4He retention age of Sariçiçek. Lunar scaling for crater production to crater counts of its ejecta blanket show it was formed ~22 Ma ago.

- Based on an international workshop (Gothenburg, 14-16 May 2008), this review article aims to combine interdisciplinary knowledge from coastal and open ocean research on iron biogeochemistry. The major scientific findings of the past decade are structured into sections on natural and artificial iron fertilization, iron inputs into coastal and estuarine systems, colloidal iron and organic matter, and biological processes. Potential effects of global climate change, particularly ocean acidification, on iron biogeochemistry are discussed. The findings are synthesized into recommendations for future research areas

- The Earth close approach of near-Earth asteroid 2005 LW3 on 2022 November 23 represented a good opportunity for a second observing campaign to test the timing accuracy of astrometric observation. With 82 participating stations, the International Asteroid Warning Network collected 1046 observations of 2005 LW3 around the time of the close approach. Compared to the previous timing campaign targeting 2019 XS, some individual observers were able to significantly improve the accuracy of their reported observation times. In particular, U.S. surveys achieved good timing performance. However, no broad, systematic improvement was achieved compared to the previous campaign, with an overall negative bias persisting among the different observers. The calibration of observing times and the mitigation of timing errors should be important future considerations for observers and orbit computers, respectively.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In the present work, carbon is implanted into monocrystalline Ge and into relaxed epitaxial MBE-grown Si1-xGex. The samples are studied with infrared absorption spectroscopy along with ion-channeling studies on the Ge samples. Finally, ab-initio local density functional cluster theory is applied to calculate the structure and the local vibrational modes of substitutional carbon, Cs, in Ge. After implantation of 12C+ in Ge at room temperature and subsequent annealing at 350°C, a sharp absorption line is observed at 531 cm-1. By isotope substitution, it is concluded that the 531 cm-1 line represents a local vibrational mode of a single carbon atom. From ion-channeling measurements on samples annealed at 450°C, it is found that 31±3 % of the carbon atoms are located at substitutional sites. The population of the substitutional site and the intensity of the 531 cm-1 mode have identical annealing behavior and it is concluded that the 531 cm-1 mode is the three-dimensional T2 stretch mode of Cs in Ge. The calculated frequency and isotope shift for this mode are in good agreement with the observations. In Si0.65Ge0.35, two broad absorption lines are observed at ∼551 and ∼592 cm-1 after implantation of 12C+ and subsequent annealing at 550°C. From measurements on samples implanted with 13C+ and coimplanted with 12C+ and 13C+ we conclude that these lines represent local vibrational modes of defects containing a single carbon atom. In 13C+ implanted Si1-xGex samples that contain 15 to 50 % Ge a number of modes are observed in a frequency range from ∼510 to ∼610 cm-1, i.e., in the range of Cs in Ge and in Si. From the experimental findings it is concluded that substitutional carbon in Si1-xGex binds to both Si and Ge.

- Carbon impurities implanted into single-crystalline germanium are studied with infrared absorption spectroscopy and ion channeling. After implantation of 12C+ at room temperature and subsequent annealing at 350 °C, a sharp infrared absorption line is observed at 531 cm-1. When 12C+ is substituted by 13C+, the line shifts down in frequency to 512 cm-1 and co-implantation of 12C+ and 13C+ does not give rise to additional lines. Therefore, the 531-cm-1 line represents a local vibrational mode of a defect containing a single carbon atom. Channeling measurements are carried out around the 〈100〉, 〈110〉, and 〈111〉 axes in 12C+-implanted samples annealed at 450 °C. The analysis of the data shows that 31±3 % of the carbon atoms are located at substitutional sites, while the remaining carbon atoms appear to be located randomly. The population of the substitutional site and the intensity of the 531-cm-1 mode have identical temperature dependencies. It is concluded that the 531-cm-1 mode is the three-dimensional T2 stretch mode of substitutional carbon. The effective charge of the mode is determined to be (3.4±0.5)e.mAb initio local density functional cluster theory is applied to calculate the structure and the local vibrational modes of substitutional carbon in germanium. The calculated frequencies and isotope shifts for the T2 stretch mode are in good agreement with the observations.

- Local vibrational modes of carbon impurities in relaxed Si1-xGex have been studied with infrared absorption spectroscopy in the composition range 0.05≤x≤0.50. Carbon modes with frequencies in the range 512-600 cm-1 are observed in 13C+-implanted Si1-xGex after annealing at 550°C. Measurements on samples coimplanted with 12C+ and 13C+ show that these modes originate from defects containing a single carbon atom and from the variation of the mode frequencies with composition x, the modes are assigned to substitutional carbon in Si1-xGex. Based on the frequencies obtained from a simple vibrational model, the observed modes are assigned to specific combinations of the four Si and Ge neighbors to the carbon. The intensities of the modes indicate that the combination of the four neighbors deviates from a random distribution. Ab initio local-density-functional cluster theory has been applied to calculate the structure and the local mode frequencies of substitutional carbon with n Ge and 4-n Si neighbors in a Si and a Ge cluster. The calculated frequencies are ∼9% higher than those observed, but the ordering and the splitting of the mode frequencies agree with our assignments.

- Local vibrational modes of a weakly bound carbon-hydrogen complex in silicon have been identified with infrared-absorption spectroscopy. After implantation of protons at ∼20 K and subsequent annealing at 180 K, two carbon modes at 596 and 661 cm-1, and one hydrogen mode at 1885 cm-1 are observed. The three modes originate from the same complex, which is identified as bond-centered hydrogen in the vicinity of a nearby substitutional carbon atom. Ab initio theory has been applied to calculate the structure and local modes of carbon-hydrogen complexes with hydrogen located at the first, second, and third nearest bond-center site to substitutional carbon. The results support our assignment.

- Crystalline silicon samples doped with carbon were irradiated with electrons and subsequently implanted with protons. Infrared-absorption measurements revealed local modes of hydrogen and carbon at 2967.4, 911.7, and 654.7 cm-1, which originate from the same defect. Measurements on samples codoped with different carbon and hydrogen isotopes showed that the defect contains two equivalent carbon and two equivalent hydrogen atoms. From uniaxial stress measurements, the defect is found to display trigonal symmetry. Ab initio local-density-functional theory was applied to calculate the structure and local vibrational modes of defects with pairs of equivalent carbon and hydrogen atoms. Based on these results, the observed local modes are ascribed to a defect with two adjacent substitutional carbon atoms, each of which binds a hydrogen atom located between the carbon atoms.
