Boron in chondrules

Meteoritics & Planetary Science, 2001
Abstract— Isotopic compositions and abundances of boron were measured in sixteen chondrules from seven chondrites by ion microprobe mass spectrometry. The chondrules are of the porphyritic, barred, and radial type and host meteorites include carbonaceous, ordinary, and enstatite chondrites.

CHONDRULES

Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 1997
▪ Abstract  Chondrules are ∼1-mm igneous droplets in primitive meteorites, and their abundance suggests widespread melting in the protoplanetary disk. Chondrules with relict unmelted grains or igneous rims record multi111ple melting events. There are two main types of chondrules, type I (FeO-poor and volatile-poor) and type II [FeO-rich and ...

MICRO‐CHONDRULES

Meteoritics, 1970
Very small chondrules, which are less than 250μ in size and are referred to as microchondrules, were discovered in twelve chondritic meteorites. The morphology, composition, and structure of these microchondritic bodies are investigated. In particular, the description of the principal, minor, and accessory minerals is given in some detail ...

The dependence of chondrule density on chondrule size

Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1980
Spherical chondrules disaggregated from the meteorite Bjurbole have been found to have densities which vary as a function of size. The relationship is: ϱ = (3.78±0.06) − (1.25±0.37) d where ϱ is the chondrule density in g cm −3 and d is the diameter in cm.

The frequency of compound chondrules and implications for chondrule formation

Meteoritics & Planetary Science, 2004
Abstract— The properties of compound chondrules and the implications that they have for the conditions and environment in which chondrules formed are investigated. Formulae to calculate the probability of detecting compound chondrules in thin sections are derived and applied to previous studies.
