Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Astronomy
  • Mineral
  • Igneous rock

Gretchen Benedix mainly investigates Meteorite, Chondrite, Mineralogy, Chondrule and Silicate. Her Meteorite study typically links adjacent topics like Diopside. Her work investigates the relationship between Chondrite and topics such as Petrography that intersect with problems in Asteroid and Isotopes of oxygen.

Her biological study deals with issues like Parent body, which deal with fields such as Calcite. Her Chondrule research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Pyroxene, Olivine, Pyrrhotite, Pentlandite and Murchison meteorite. The various areas that she examines in her Silicate study include Geochemistry, Winonaite, Partial melting and Primitive achondrite.

Her most cited work include:

  • Modal mineralogy of CM2 chondrites by X-ray diffraction (PSD-XRD). Part 1: Total phyllosilicate abundance and the degree of aqueous alteration (144 citations)
  • Modal mineralogy of CM2 chondrites by X-ray diffraction (PSD-XRD). Part 1: Total phyllosilicate abundance and the degree of aqueous alteration (144 citations)
  • A Petrologic Study of the IAB Iron Meteorites: Constraints on the Formation of the IAB-Winonaite Parent Body (135 citations)

What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Meteorite, Geochemistry, Chondrite, Mineralogy and Astrobiology. As a part of the same scientific family, Gretchen Benedix mostly works in the field of Meteorite, focusing on Martian and, on occasion, Impact crater. Her study looks at the intersection of Geochemistry and topics like Winonaite with Primitive achondrite.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Carbonate, Petrography and Aqueous solution in addition to Chondrite. Her studies in Mineralogy integrate themes in fields like Analytical chemistry, Troilite, Partial melting and Ordinary chondrite. Her Parent body research incorporates elements of Electron backscatter diffraction, Magnetite, Allende meteorite and Calcite.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Meteorite (64.59%)
  • Geochemistry (45.93%)
  • Chondrite (38.28%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Meteorite (64.59%)
  • Martian (17.22%)
  • Astrobiology (20.57%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Gretchen Benedix spends much of her time researching Meteorite, Martian, Astrobiology, Mars Exploration Program and Impact crater. The Meteorite study combines topics in areas such as Geochemistry, Electron backscatter diffraction, Nakhlite and Meteoroid. Her Geochemistry research integrates issues from Characterization and Acapulcoite.

Gretchen Benedix has researched Electron backscatter diffraction in several fields, including Parent body, Chondrite and Allende meteorite. Her Astrobiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as In situ, Spectral line and Pyroxene. Her studies deal with areas such as Geophysics and Data set as well as Mars Exploration Program.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • A Global Fireball Observatory (8 citations)
  • Tracing martian surface interactions with the triple O isotope compositions of meteoritic phosphates (6 citations)
  • Deriving Surface Ages on Mars using Automated Crater Counting (4 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Astronomy
  • Mineral
  • Igneous rock

Gretchen Benedix focuses on Meteorite, Mars Exploration Program, Igneous rock, Martian and Nakhlite. Gretchen Benedix merges Meteorite with Population in her study. Her Igneous rock study deals with the bigger picture of Geochemistry.

Her research combines Parent body and Geochemistry. Her research integrates issues of Impact crater, Isotopes of oxygen and Analytical chemistry in her study of Martian. Her Crater counting study incorporates themes from Mineralogy, Isochron and Geochronology.
