Scientific paper

A TEM study of natural, relatively severe shock effects in meteorites using chondrite specimens from the L group belonging to shock facies d and e of Dodd and Jarosewich (1979) is reported. Shock effects in major silicate materials, including olivine, orthopyroxene, diopsides, and plagioclase are shown and discussed. Fine-scale associations between glass and crystals of different composition are described, including chromite and glass of plagioclase composition, silicate glass with metal and sulfide globules, finely crystalline material, monomineralic fine-grained areas, and thin veins. The results are interpreted in terms of shock of deformation processes and thermal effects.
