Origin and early history of volatile elements and compounds in the solar system as revealed by mass spectrometer measurements of noble gases and nitrogen in meteorites and lunar samples. Areas of particular interest include the composition of the primordial solar nebula, isotopic signatures of nucleosynthesis in primitive meteorites, the compositional history of solar wind and flares over the past 4+ billion years, and the origin and evolution of volatiles in the interiors and atmospheres of Earth, Mars and Venus.
