Did the carbonaceous chondrites evolve in the crustal regions of partially differentiated asteroids?

S Sahijpal, G Gupta - Journal of Geophysical Research …, 2011 - Wiley Online Library
Carbonaceous chondrites are considered to be the most primitive meteorites that contain
some of the earliest formed solar system phases, eg, Ca‐Al‐rich inclusions and chondrules …

Magnetic evidence for a partially differentiated carbonaceous chondrite parent body

L Carporzen, BP Weiss… - Proceedings of the …, 2011 - National Acad Sciences
The textures of chondritic meteorites demonstrate that they are not the products of planetary
melting processes. This has long been interpreted as evidence that chondrite parent bodies …

Chondrites as samples of differentiated planetesimals

LT Elkins-Tanton, BP Weiss, MT Zuber - Earth and Planetary Science …, 2011 - Elsevier
Chondritic meteorites are unmelted and variably metamorphosed aggregates of the earliest
solids of the solar system. The variety of metamorphic textures in chondrites motivated the …

Paleomagnetic evidence for a partially differentiated ordinary chondrite parent asteroid

JFJ Bryson, BP Weiss, B Getzin… - Journal of …, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
The textures and accretion ages of chondrites have been used to argue that their parent
asteroids never differentiated. Without a core, undifferentiated planetesimals could not have …
