Chondritic meteorites and their components formed in the protoplanetary disk surrounding
the nascent sun. We show here that the two volumetrically dominating components of …

Trace element analyses of individual chondrules from CV and CO chondrites suggest that
two major constituents of chondritic meteorites, chondrules and Ca, Al-rich inclusions (CAIs) …

One of the major unresolved problems in cosmochemistry is the origin of chondrules, once
molten, spherical silicate droplets with diameters of 0.2 to 2 mm. Chondrules are an …

Chondrules and matrix are the two major components of carbonaceous chondrites (CC).
The Mg/Si ratios of chondrules and matrices in CV, CR, CO and CM chondrites are …

Chondrites consist of three major components: refractory inclusions (Ca, Al‐rich inclusions
[CAI s] and amoeboid olivine aggregates), chondrules, and matrix. Here, I summarize recent …

We studied the texture of 256 chondrules in thin sections of 16 different carbonaceous (CV,
CR, CO, CM, CH) and Rumuruti chondrites. In a conservative count∼ 75% of all chondrules …

Deciphering the spatial and temporal evolution of chondrules allows for a better
understanding of how asteroidal seeds formed, migrated, and eventually accreted into …

Origin of Chondrules and Matrix in Carbonaceous Chondrites ADS Classic is now deprecated.
It will be completely retired in October 2019. This page will automatically redirect to the new …

The elemental and isotopic compositions of meteorites are expected to reflect several key
processes that occurred in the early solar system, including the migration of gas and dust …

Among primitive meteorites, CR chondrites have peculiar isotopic compositions, the origin of
which is uncertain and may have involved contributions from primordial molecular cloud …
