Raman spectroscopy of irradiated organic matter (2007)
Court, Richard, Sephton, Mark, Parnell, J., Gilmour, Iain
Raman spectroscopy of a range of irradiated and nonirradiated natural terrestrial bitumens has revealed that radiolytic alteration is generally associated with an increase in structural...

Watson, Jonathan, Fraser, Wesley, Self, Stephen, Sephton, Mark
Application of GCxGC-ToFMS in the analysis of meteoritic organic macromolecules (2007)
Watson, Jonathan, Turner, Diane, Gilmour, Iain, Sephton, Mark, Morgan, Geraint
Verchovsky, Sasha, Sephton, Mark
Meteorites contain unusual mixtures of noble gases that reflect contributions from several extraterrestrial environments. Processes that predate the formation of the solar system – such as...

Verchovsky, Sasha, Sephton, Mark, Wright, Ian, Pillinger, Colin
Detailed stepped combustion of HF-HCl residues from carbonaceous and enstatite chondrites suggest Q-noble gas carrier is different from bulk carbon in the meteorites.
The Tagish Lake chondrite and the interstellar parent body hypothesis (2001)
Gilmour, I., Sephton, Mark, Pearson, V. K.
Investigation of the solvent extractable organic compounds in Tagish Lake. The results are used to test the interstellar parent body hypthesis for the origin of extraterrestrial organic matter.
