Kivesvaara C2 chondrite: silicate petrography and chemical composition [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1983 Fragments of the Kivesvaara meteorite were said to have been found in Paltamo, northern Finland in 1968. The chemical and mineral composition and the textural features show that this meteorite is a rare C2 carbonaceous chondrite.

Chondrule Survivability in the Solar Nebula
The Astrophysical JournalThe lifetime of millimeter-sized dust grains, such as chondrules, in the nominal solar nebula model is limited to ∼10 ^5 yr, due to an inward drift driven by gas drag.

Записки Горного института, 2022 The paper discusses the geochemistry of major (EPMA) and trace (SIMS) elements in olivine of porphyritic, nonporphyritic chondrules, and the matrix of equilibrated ordinary chondrite Saratov (L4).

Cooling Rates of Chondrules after Lightning Discharge in Solid-rich Environments
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Among the several candidate models for chondrule formation, the lighting model has been recognized to be less likely than the other two major models, shock-wave heating and planetesimal collision.

Hysteresis properties of chondritic meteorites: New results for chondrules from the Allende meteorite [PDF]
Geofísica Internacional, 2002 Hysteresis properties of twenty individual chondrules from a ~50 cc piece of the Allende carbonaceous chondritic meteorite, with diameters between about 0.08 and 0.44 cm are reported. Coercive force Hc varies from about 3 mT to 32.5 mT.

A Chondrule in the Chainpur Meteorite [PDF]
Science, 1965 The occurrence of glass as a major constituent in a chondrule from the Chainpur meteorite provides evidence that the chondrules formed by rapid cooling of liquid droplets. The virtual absence of nickel in the silicates suggests that it segregated into the metal phase in the molten stage, prior to crystallization of the silicates.

Bubbles to Chondrites-I. Evaporation and condensation experiments, and formation of chondrules
Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2020 We propose a simple model of chondrule formation that is supported by our new experiments. With a laser-heating and inert-gas-cooling technique, we obtained evaporation and condensation pathways starting with chondritic compositions till ends, and ...

Chondrule formation, metamorphism, brecciation, an important new primary chondrule group, and the classification of chondrules [PDF]
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1995 The recently proposed compositional classification scheme for meteoritic chondrules divides the chondrules into groups depending on the composition of their two major phases, olivine (or pyroxene) and the mesostasis, both of which are genetically important.

Origin of Isotopic Diversity among Carbonaceous Chondrites
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Carbonaceous chondrites are some of the most primitive meteorites and derive from planetesimals that formed a few million years after the beginning of the solar system.

Igneous Rim Accretion on Chondrules in Low-velocity Shock Waves
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 Shock-wave heating is a leading candidate for the mechanisms of chondrule formation. This mechanism forms chondrules when the shock velocity is in a certain range.
