Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Most meteorites found on Earth exhibit traces of past mutual collisions with a variety of the degrees of shock metamorphism. To decipher these traces, it is necessary to understand the nature of shockwaves propagating through asteroidal rocks. However, due to the numerous grain boundaries and voids, the applicability of existing models must be validated. We constructed a new method to recover and analyze the shocked materials from the vicinity directly below the impact point in hypervelocity impacts under the same geometry as natural impacts. In addition, we established a methodology to reconstruct the distribution of maximum pressure and temperature when shock waves propagate through such complex materials.
