Abstract

This dataset contains Meteoric Ablation Simulator (MASI) sodium and nickel ablation experimental data, where samples were heated in vacuum chamber with Na and Ni and detected by laser induced fluorescence. The data are Laser induced fluorescence (LIF) profiles of Ni and Na from ablating particles (powdered meteorite or meteorite proxy).

This experiment was undertaken as part of Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) First study of the global Nickel and Aluminium Layers in the upper atmosphere (NIALL) project (NE/P001815/1). This project aimed to make the first ever study of Ni and Al chemistry in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere.
