Affiliation: University of Chicago
Keywords: Solar system, chondrites, condensation
[contact]
Lawrence Grossman, Department of the Geophysical Sciences and Enrico Fermi Institute, University of Chicago, used thermodynamic calculations to predict the sequence of condensation of chemical compounds from the cooling gas of the pre-planetary solar nebula, and showed that the mineralogical and chemical compositions of certain inclusions in meteorites are those predicted for the earliest-formed solids in the solar system. Using mineralogy, experimental petrology and trace element and isotopic geochemistry, he deduced much of what we know about the temperature, oxygen fugacity and cooling rate of the parts of the solar nebula cloud where they formed, as well as the chemical fractionations that occurred and the degree of chemical and isotopic heterogeneity that existed there.
