| 内容記述 | Experimental procedures for measuring trace element partitioning among metal and sulfide and silicate phases are described, and solid metal/liquid metal partition coefficients for minor and trace elements in the Fe-Ni system at 5 to 14% Ni are reported. The bulk compositions desired are homogenized at superliquidus temperature for 15-24 hours, held at a temperature in the solid/liquid two phase region for about 24 hours, and quenched to freeze in the equilibrium compositions. Run products are analyzed by electron microprobe. With the exception of Cr, all preliminary partition coefficients obtained are in the same sense as values derived from iron meteorites. The partition coefficients for Cr in solid metal/liquid metal and metal/troilite systems suggest that IIIAB and main group pallasites equilibrated with 9-22% troilite. A second method which makes it possible to place upper and lower limits on the partition coefficient by holding part of the sample at subliquidus and part at superliquidus temperatures, yielded significantly different results for the two metals tested (Au and Pt) from those obtained by the first method, demonstrating the importance of a close approach to equilibrium before using experimentally-determined partition coefficients to test empirical differentiation models for iron meteorites. |
