Micrometeorites have been recovered from traps located at the summit of nunataks in the Transantarctic Mountains (TAM), Antarctica. They constitute the TAM micrometeorite collection. Micrometeorites accumulated by direct infall for hundreds of thousands of years. This long collection duration is confirmed by the wide range of weathering by dissolution of olivine in the stony micrometeorites from the TAM collection. A statistical study of the size distribution and frequency by type of this collection, and comparison with other Antarctic micrometeorite collections (the South Pole Water Well collection and the Walcott Névé collection), suggest that the TAM collection is essentially unbiased. Thanks to the very long exposure of the traps, large diameter (>1000 μm) micrometeorites are present in sufficiently large numbers to allow a statistically meaningful estimate of their size distribution in this size range for the first time. We found that the slope of the size distribution remains constant in the 100–1600 μm size range. Therefore, the size distribution of micrometeorites in this size range is controlled by a single process. 相似文献

Micrometeorites and Their Implications for Meteors 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Micrometeorites (MMs) are extraterrestrial dust particles, in the size range 25–400 μm, recovered from the Earth’s surface.
They have experienced a wide range of heating during atmospheric entry from completely molten spherules to particles heated
to temperatures <300°C that have retained low temperature minerals. The majority of MMs have mineralogies, textures and compositions
that strongly resemble components from chondritic meteorites suggesting these correspond to sporadic, low geocentric velocity
meteors. Changes in MMs due to entry heating, however, have implications for meteoric processes in general that may allow
the observed behaviour of meteors to be directly related to the material properties of their meteoroids. 相似文献
