More about the book
Focusing on the Yanzhuang chondrite, this book delves into its mineralogy and the effects of shock using advanced experimental techniques like SEM, TEM, and Raman spectroscopy. It provides a detailed analysis of the micro-structural and chemical properties of the minerals. The findings reveal that Yanzhuang is the most heavily shocked ordinary H group chondrite discovered, containing a significant amount of shock-induced melt, surpassing all other known shock-melt-bearing chondritic meteorites.
