Scientific paper

Electron transparent sections (30-100 nm thick) of interplanetary dust particles and other fine-grained meteoric materials are produced using an ultramicrotome equipped with a diamond knife. An analytical electron microscope (AEM) is employed to examine indigenous physical properties (e.g., porosity), mineralogy, and petrography. Large data sets of quantitative point count analysis obtained from thin sections enable direct mineralogical comparison of IDPs and Halley.
