Extraterrestrial and Terrestrial Fassaite Compared : Allende CV 3 versus
Introduction: Meteoritic Al-, Ti-rich clinopyroxene, first reported in CAIs in the Allende and Vigarano CV3 chondrites, was termed “fassaite” and found to be structurally similar to terrestrial fassaite by crystal structure refinement by [1]. Unlike terrestrial fassaite, it lacks Fe but contains significant Ti and Ti [1,2]. Al enters both the octahedral and tetrahedral sites via Tschermak’s sub...
متن کاملRare Earth Element Measurements of Melilite and Fassaite in Allende Cai by Nanosims
Introduction: The rare earth elements (REEs) are concentrated in CAIs by ~20 times the chondritic average [e.g., 1]. The REEs in CAIs are important to understand processes of CAI formation including the role of volatilization, condensation, and fractional crystallization [1,2]. REE measurements are a well-established application of ion microprobes [e.g., 3]. However the spatial resolution of RE...
متن کاملXANES and Mg isotopic analyses of spinels in Ca-Al-rich inclusions: Evidence for formation under oxidizing conditions
Ti valence measurements in MgAl2O4 spinel from calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) by X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy show that many spinels have predominantly tetravalent Ti, regardless of host phases. The average spinel in Allende type B1 inclusion TS34 has 87% Ti. Most spinels in fluffy type A (FTA) inclusions also have high Ti valence. In contrast, the rims of ...
متن کاملEfremovka 101.1: A CAI with ultrarefractory REE patterns and enormous enrichments of Sc, Zr, and Y in Fassaite and Perovskite
Inclusion 101.1 from the CV3 carbonaceous chondrite Efremovka is a compact Type A Ca-Al-rich inclusion (CAI) highly enriched in ultrarefractory (UR) oxides. It is the first complete CAI with a UR rare earth element (REE) pattern found in a CV3 chondrite. The inclusion is petrographically complex and was formed in a multistage process. It consists of several lithologically unrelated units. The c...
متن کاملSurface Recognition and Complexations Between Synthetic Poly(ribo)nucleotides and Neutral Phospholipids and Their Implications in Lipofection
Thermodynamic features related to preparation and use of self-assemblies formed between multilamellar and unilamellar zwitterionic liposomes and polynucleotides with various conformation and sizes are presented. The divalent metal cation or surfactant-induced adsorption, aggregation and adhesion between single- and double-stranded polyribonucleotides and phosphatidylcholine vesicles was followe...
