PhD defense of Lucie Laize-Generat - Thursday, October 24th, 2024 at 2.00 pm - Manuel Forestini room IPAG

The incorporation and evolution of nitrogen (N) in the early solar system, as well as on the primitive earth, are still not completely understood. Questions remain concerning the nature and distribution of N-bearing phases that were present in the protoplanetary disk and are now present in small bodies, remnants of the protoplanetary disk, and by extend in cosmomaterials. At this time in the literature, it is commonly assumed that in carbonaceous chondrites and comets, most of the total (…)
