  1. 1. Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) Analysis and Predicted Physical Properties of Shocked Quartz from the Chicxulub Impact Crater, Mexico

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Författare :Erina Prastyani; [2022]
    Nyckelord :EBSD; SEM; shocked quartz; quartz; CPO; seismic velocity; anisotropy; Chicxulub; impact crater; pole figures; MTEX toolbox; microstructural features; planar deformation feature; planar fracture; feather features;

    Sammanfattning : As one of the most common minerals in crustal rocks, quartz has been widely used as an indicator for shock metamorphism. Shocked quartz is found in the Chicxulub impact crater, an impact crater that has been linked to the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction ~66 million years ago. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Impactites from the Hiawatha crater, North-West Greenland

    Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för geologiska vetenskaper

    Författare :Jacob Gustafsson; [2020]
    Nyckelord :Hiawatha; impact crater; Cape York; Baffin Bay; Greenland Ice Sheet; Younger Dryas; meteorite; impactite; organic carbon; conifer; vitrinite reflectance; Ro; cellular texture; chromite; chromium isotope; toasted quartz; ballen quartz; melted carbonate; granular zircon; planar deformation feature;

    Sammanfattning : The recent discovery of the 31-km-wide Hiawatha impact crater has raised unanswered questions about its age, impactor and highly unusual organic carbon component. Previous research suggests a fractionated iron meteorite impactor, a probable maximum 3–2.4 Ma impact age and a possible Younger Dryas impact age. LÄS MER
