摘要:

The densities of specimens of the meteorites Holbrook, Arizona, Llano del Inca, Atacama, Chile, Xiquipilco (Toluca), Mexico, and Admire, Kansas, have been determined (v.Table 1,post, for results). The influence of the immersion‐liquid on the value of the density obtained is discussed, and examples are given. This influence is small but definite; it is especially important if the meteorite is in the form of filings or powder. The maximum error for some of the densities determined for this report is calculated and discussed. It was found to be small, particularly when the meteoritic specimen was large and the immersion‐fluid was relatively dense. Lastly, rational methods of determining densities of meteorites are discussed and suggestions are offered for a method of calculating the densities of meteorites that are not suitable for immersion in liqu
