Title: Graphitic carbon in the Allende meteorite: a microstructural study

Journal Article · · Science; (United States)

High-resolution transmission electron microscopy shows that carbon in the Allende carbonaceous chondrite meteorite is predominantly a poorly crystalline graphite. Such material is of interest as an important carrier of the isotopically anomalous noble gases found in carbonaceous chondrites.
