Meteoritic basalts: The nakhlites, their parental magmas, cooling rates, and equivalents on Earth [PDF]

open access: yes
Field study in northern Ontario was planned to compare cumulate rocks reported in the literature with the nakhlites in order to study the crystallization rates of the nakhlites and their possible geological settings.

Experimental petrology and the upper mantle: simulating peridotitic sources and mantle heterogeneities

open access: yesAll Earth
Experimental petrology provides a direct means of constraining mineral phase stability and primary magma compositions across a wide range of pressure – temperature (P-T) conditions.

Investigation of critical burning of fuel droplets [PDF]

open access: yes
The steady combustion characteristics of droplets were considered in combustion chamber environments at various pressures, flow conditions, and ambient oxidizer concentrations for a number of hydrocarbon fuels.

Electrical conductivity of carbonaceous chondrites and electric heating of meteorite parent bodies [PDF]

open access: yes
The electrical conductivity of samples of the Murchison and Allende carbonaceous chondrites is 4 to 6 magnitudes greater than rock forming minerals such as Olivine up to 700 C. The remarkably high electrical conductivity of these meteorites is attributed

Electrolytic smelting of lunar rock for oxygen, iron, and silicon [PDF]

open access: yes
Preliminary studies of the electrochemical properties of silicate melts such as those available from heating of lunar mare soils indicate that conductivities are high enough for design of a practical electrolytic cell.

Mixed-valence iron minerals on Venus: Fe(2+)-Fe(3+) oxides and oxy-silicates formed by surface-atmosphere interactions [PDF]

open access: yes
Inferences from these investigations are that Fe(3+)-bearing minerals such as hematite magnesioferrite, acmite, and epidote are thermodynamically unstable, and that magnetite is the predominant mixed-valence iron oxide mineral on venus.

Effect of Oxygen Fugacity on Fassaitic Pyroxene

open access: yesEffect of Oxygen Fugacity on Fassaitic Pyroxene
Stability of fassaitic pyroxene in the system CaMgSi2O6-CaFeAlSiO6-CaAl2SiO6-CaTiAl2O6 is discussed on the basis of published data. In the system CaMgSi2O6-CaFeAlSiO6 the stability field of clinopyroxene decreases with an increase in CaFeAlSiO6 content and a decrease in oxygen fugacity at constant temperature.
