| 内容記述 | The paper presents microprobe data on controlled cooling experiments on the eucrite meteorite Stannern, with emphasis on pyroxene zoning and chemistry, development of immiscible liquids in the mesostasis, and compositional boundary layer development adjacent to crystals. Controlled cooling rate experiments on melted samples of the meteorite yield a variety of petrographic textures that can be related to the cooling rate. Textures of clasts in Stannern suggest natural cooling rates of .1 to 100 C/hr for various clasts in the meteorite. Residual liquids are found to unmix at temperatures below about 990 C at moderate cooling rates. Results indicate that Stannern's pyroxenes have evidently undergone subsolidus internal cation exchange, thereby removing Fe-Mg variation in pyroxenes, lowering Al contents, and promoting exosolution. |
