E.; Joswiak, D. J.; Bradley, J. P.; Gezo, J. C.; Hill, H. G. M. Abstract: Ultramicrotome sections of IDPs have been successfully etched with HF to isolate and reveal the microdistribution of carbonaceous material. The sections are evaluated for nanodiamonds, 3.4 micron feature, GEMS and the origin of low albedo in small interplanetary particles.
