Scientific paper

The deformation structures of mildly shocked chondritic diopsidic pyroxenes are characterized using transmission electron microscopy. Shock deformation effects are observed in samples from the Saint-Severin, Quenggouk and Allegan ordinary chondrites in the forms of narrow twin lamellae and slip planes in the (100) orientation, however (001) twinning is absent. The structures are shown to be compatible with the effects of experimental deformation at low strain rates and are considered to indicate a particularly mild type of shock, in which the stresses generated within a crystal are low.
