Investigating the origin and distribution of primordial noble gases and volatiles in asteroids and comets : a comparative study of interplanetary dust particles (IDPs), Antarctic micrometeorites (AMMs) and carbonaceous chondrites

The volatile and noble gas inventories of comets are poorly understood relative to asteroids. Interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) and micrometeorites are thought to originate predominantly from comets, therefore they provide a means of investigating cometary volatiles which can be compared to unequ...
