Scientific paper

This study examines the remanent magnetic properties of five unbrecciated eucrites, ranging from the coarse-grained cumulate Moore County to the quenched melt rock ALH 81001 in order to assess the strength of the magnetic field associated with their parent body during their formation. Two of the meteorites are judged as unlikely to have preserved their primary thermal remanence because of large variations in subsample remanence intensity and direction (Ibitira), and lack of NRM resistance to AF and thermal demagnetization (PCA 82502). The lack of a strong (greater than 0.01 mT) magnetizing field during their cooling on the eucrite parent body is inferred from the low normalized NRM intensities for subsamples of ALH 81001 and Yamato 791195.
