Sachiko Amari

Short description: Japanese astrophysicist

Sachiko Amari is a Japanese astrophysicist who focuses upon presolar grains. She developed the method for isolating presolar grains in primitive meteorites and also researched noble gases in meteorites.[1] Amari was awarded the Urey Medal by the European Association of Geochemistry in 2021.[2] She currently is a Research Professor of Physics at Washington University in St. Louis.
