Scientific paper

It is noted that while the ordering of taenite leads to a change of symmetry from face-centered cubic to tetragonal, no tetragonal distortion of the lattice has previously been observed. Here, the mineral composition of the taenite fields in meteorites is briefly reviewed and the lattice parameters of well ordered, stoichiometric tetrataenite from three iron meteorites and one mesosiderite are reported. It is found that the lattice exhibits tetragonal symmetry, the lattice parameters associated with the unit cell containing four atoms being a = 3.5761 + or - 0.0005 A, c = 3.5890 + or - 0.0005 A, and c/a = 1.0036 + or - 0.0002.
