Item Highly Siderophile Elements, 187Re-187Os and 182Hf-182W Isotopic Systematics of Early Solar System Materials: Constraining the Early Evolution of Chondritic and Achondritic Parent Bodies(2016) Archer, Gregory Jude; Walker, Richard J; Geology; Digital Repository at the University of Maryland; University of Maryland (College Park, Md.)Highly siderophile element (HSE) abundances and 187Re-187Os isotopic systematics for H chondrites and ungrouped achondrites, as well as 182Hf-182W isotopic systematics of H and CR chondrites are reported. Achondrite fractions with higher HSE abundances show little disturbance of 187Re-187Os isotopic systematics. By contrast, isotopic systematics for lower abundance fractions are consistent with minor Re mobilization. For magnetically separated H chondrite fractions, the magnitudes of disturbance for the 187Re-187Os isotopic system follow the trend coarse-metal
