Description:
In an attempt to classify the nature of volatiles within interplanetary dust particles (IDP's), 14 IDP's using a laser microprobe/mass spectrometer (LM/MS) technique were studied. Volatile abundances and distributions found for the IDP's are compared with those measured for carbonaceous chondrites in order to determine if the IDP's are related to the parent bodies of these primitive meteorites.
