| 内容記述 | The results of petrographic studies and 1 atmosphere melting experiments of Shergotty and Zagami shergottites, the origin and evolution of the shergottites, and the relationship of the shergottite parent body to the parent bodies of the other achondrites and to the earth are examined. Shergotty and Zagami differ in the proportions of cumulus pyroxenes and crystallized intercumulus liquid, but their compositions are similar. Shergottites can be distinguished from other achondrite groups by their mineralogies, crystallization sequences, and inferred source region compositions, but their source regions can be related to other achondrite types by addition or loss of volatile components. Shergottites and terrestrial basalts show similar oxidation states and minor element concentrations which may be accounted for by accretion of similar materials to produce the terrestrial upper mantle and the shergottite parent body, or by accretion of the earth's upper mantle from planetisimals similar to the shergottite parent body. |
