Stardust run March 2006 started 10pm 7mar06 mounted C2044,9 in 10.3.2 holder found beam using CsI(Tl) on side of holder track 9 coarse scan 0 to find top edge of keystone in total channel -- aborted to recenter track 9 coarse scan 1 recentered scan region on track Fe glitch cal: Glitch at 7263.74--> Fe edge at 7110.75. Zn glitch cal: Glitch at 9787.28 ---> Zn edge at 9660.76 1 FeNiZn 2 3 10mm pixel, 16px high 3mm pixel, 14px across
FeNiZn 1 1 FeNiZn 3 FeNi 2 3 conclusions track 9 contains three particles Fe-XANES textbook match to pyrrhotite Zn-XANES in (1) textbook match to sphalerite XRD on (1) possible match to sphalerite+pyrrhotite (2 peaks) XRD on (2) good match to pyrrhotite (2 peaks) XRD on (3) possible match to pyrrhotite (2 peaks) track 10 contains multiple particles and a large t.p. analyzed 6 particles (1-4, t.p. & spot X) t.p. ? XANES is good match to Fe0(XRD? XRF?) spot X: need track 10 map with tp & spot X track 4 : analyzed 3 particles -- one in track and two terminal particles 3 1 2

track10 spot3 has Fe, Ni - Does Ni substitute for Fe? Take XANES at both edges, plot together Track 10 That odd offset figure is the difference in edge energies for elemental Ni, Fe, according to Kraft, et. al. The Fe, Ni environments are very different, showing that the elements are either in different phases or different sites in the same phase. Fe-edge Ni-edge (subtract 1220.74eV from energy) Ni cal: Edge found at 8330.9.; glitch found at 8314.7. Scan steps are 0.5eV for cal, 1eV for data

Track 4: terminal particles at 10keV Mounted between polypropylene sheets Fe xanes on terminal particles (spots 2 and 3) Ni xanes on terminal particles: spot 2 very strong (Fe>>Ni, so was done with five layers Al foil to attenuate Fe signal)
XANES on terminal particle Fe-edge XANES looks like Fe metal Amplitude difference probably due to overabsorption TP Fe foil
