Genetic Relationships and the Nucleosynthetic Heritage of the Asteroid Bennu

The OSIRIS-REx sample return mission visited the B-type asteroid Bennu and delivered 121.6 gof pristine material to Earth in September 2023. Genetic links between this pristine material and different meteorite groups can be determined using nucleosynthetic isotope variations. These variations reflect the heterogeneous distribution of isotopically distinct dust from different stellar environments within the protoplanetary disk. They can therefore be used to constrain different formation locations of parent asteroids [e.g., 1]. In addition, isotope variations are powerful tracers to establish the nucleosynthetic heritage of returned samples [e.g., 2] and to evaluate mixing and reservoir formation within the disk. Here we present nucleosynthetic Ti and Fe isotope data for samples from Bennu and several carbonaceous chondrites. We also report the Ti isotope composition of hand-picked matrix fractions from CR and CV meteorites.
