#1 on parent sample 2011-05-18 thermal cooling of the sample to -60°C adsorption of water and condensation of ice on the minerals
#2 on parent sample 2011-05-18 fluid physical removal of air in the chamber: vacuum 1e-5 mbar during 10 min some loss of adsorbed water and ice
#3 on parent sample 2011-05-18 thermal heating of the sample to 0°C (temperature for the experimental conditions) loss of part of adsorbed water and ice
