The goal of this project is to begin a detailed study of the hydrogen content and isotopic compositions of H and O in calcium-aluminum rich inclusions (CAIs) and chondrules from primitive chondritic meteorites. CAIs are the oldest objects in chondritic meteorites
Meteorites Collisional physics abstract Whereas it is generally accepted that calcium–aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) from chondritic mete-orites formed in a hot environment in the solar protoplanetary disk, the conditions of their formation remain debatedtions.
Solar System solids preserved in chondritic meteorites are cal-cium–aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs), which define an absolute age of 4,567.30 ± 0.16 Ma (2). These millimeter-to-centimeter objects are believed to have formed as fine-grained condensates from a
Calcium-aluminum–rich inclusions (CAIs) and amoeboid olivine aggregates (AOAs), a refractory component of chondritic meteorites, formed in a high-temperature region of the protoplanetary disk characterized by approximately solar chemical and oxygen 17

19/8/2020· Meteorite - Meteorite - Alteration processes: Few if any chondrites have remained completely unaltered since they formed as part of their larger parent asteroids. Four processes have modified the chondrites to varying degrees: aqueous alteration, thermal metamorphism, shock, and brecciation. Soon after the chondritic parent bodies were formed, they were all heated to some …
Chondrules and CAIs: Hot Sf in the Early Solar System Chondritic meteorites are composed of materials that formed before planets roamed the solar system.The oldest of these materials are calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs), light-colored objects rich in refractory elements (that condense at a high temperature).
The Murchison meteorite fell on Septeer 28, 1969 near the village of Murchison in southeastern Australia. Murchison is one of the most studied meteorites of all time. It is rich in carbon, contains amino acids and calcium-aluminum inclusions.
Calcium-aluminium-rich inclusions are a rarity in these Al-poor meteorites. Indeed, because CAIs are composed mainly of oxidised minerals and the majority of enstatite chondrite material is reduced, it is a puzzle that CAIs exist in this meteorite class at all.
calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) – that are the first solids to have formed in the solar system 1. These 3 components slowly accreted together in the nebula to form asteroids and planets, but the asteroids from which these particular meteorites
The one time presence of short-lived radionuclides (SLRs) in Calcium-Aluminum Rich inclusions (CAIs) in primitive meteorites has been detected. The solar wind implantation model (SWIM) is one possible model that attempts to explain the alogue of SLRs found
Introduction: Calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) in chondritic meteorites are the first solids to form in the early Solar System, and thereby record the earliest conditions and processes in the solar nebula [1]. CAIs exhibit mass-independent anomalies in a
16/5/2002· Abstract: Beneath the fusion-encrusted surfaces of the most primitive stony meteorites lies not homogeneous rock, but a profusion of millimeter-sized igneous spheres. These chondrules, and their centimeter-sized counterparts, the calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions, comprise more than half of the volume fraction of chondritic meteorites.
Chondritic meteorites and their components provide information about the early solar system, as well as processes that affected meteorite parent bodies post-accretion. The rare earth element (REE) abundances, highly siderophile element (HSE) abundances, Re
Their composition varies from silie-rich to metal-sulfide-rich, and the proportion of chondrules to the total volume varies from 0% to an extraordinary 80%. Millimetre-sized inclusions rich in oxides and silies of calcium, aluminium and magnesium, known as ‘CAIs’ (calcium-aluminium-rich inclusions).
3 Introduction Background: Chondritic Meteorites Chondritic meteorites are among the oldest rocks in our solar system. Their components can include a stony matrix, chondrules, metal grains of various size, and refractory inclusions (McSween, 1987).

General Observations—Calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) in chondritic meteorites are <100 µm to >2 cm-sized objects consisting mostly of oxides and silies of calcium, aluminum, titanium, and magne-sium [1–4]. The dominant primary minerals are2O
29/11/2011· Calcium–aluminum-rich inclusions in the Allende meteorite. Extraterrestrial materials available for laboratory study come from many different Solar System bodies, and not all arrive as meteorites. Most meteorites come from the asteroid belt by collisions that send fragments of asteroids into the inner Solar System.
This age is estimated by dating calcium-aluminium-rich inclusions in meteorites. These inclusions are considered as the earliest formed solids in the solar nebula. Their formation marks the beginning for several long- and short-lived radiogenic clocks that are used to precisely define the timescales of Solar System events, such as the formation and evolution of planetary bodies 1-3 .

Define chondritic. chondritic synonyms, chondritic pronunciation, chondritic translation, English dictionary definition of chondritic. n. A stone of meteoric origin characterized by chondrules and consisting of some of the oldest solid material in the solar system. chon·drit′ic adj. Adj.
Calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) are a type of coarse-grained clast composed of Ca-, Al-, and Mg-rich silies and oxides found in chondrite meteorites. Type B (CAIs) are exclusively found in the CV chondrite meteorites and are the most well studied type of inclusion found in chondritic meteorites.
