Although pyroxene has been detected remotely across the Solar System, limited information is available from infrared remote sensing about the Mg‐Fe composition of pyroxene, and distinguishing between augite (20 < CaSiO3 < 45) and diopside‐hedenbergite ...

Determining the Pyroxene Mineralogies of Vestoids [PDF]
Bulk pyroxene compositions were calculated for a number of V-type asteroid spectra using formulae derived by Burbine et al. These formulae were derived by analyzing HED (howardite, eucrite, and diogenite) meteorites and calculate bulk Fs (mol%) and Wo ...

An experimental study of pyroxene crystallization during rapid cooling in a thermal gradient: application to komatiites [PDF]
To investigate the crystallization of pyroxene in spinifex-textured komatiites, we undertook a series of experiments in which compositions in the CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2 CMAS system were cooled rapidly in a thermal gradient.

Groupoid Analysis of Pyroxenes
AbstractThe structure and space‐group symmetry of modular structures can be obtained from the knowledge of the structure and subperiodic symmetry of the modules and of the structure‐building operations. This leads to a space groupoid, which contains all the partial operations relating any pairs of modules.

Pre-eruptive processes and their timescales are critical information for risk management at explosive volcanoes, and Santorini caldera (Greece) provides an excellent context in which to approach this subject. We ask two questions. First, are pre-eruptive
