ABSTRACT

The discovery of presolar silicates in meteorites was initially achieved by NanoSIMS raster ion imaging of size-separated grains from the primitive meteorite Acfer 094. Here we report further searches for presolar silicate and oxide grains in Acfer 094 using the NanoSIMS; we also report elemental compositions acquired with the Auger Nanoprobe in order to better understand grain formation in stellar environments.
