ABSTRACTFollowing is an account of the incidents relevant to the discovery of several new meteorites, in particular a small stony specimen (an aerolite) weighing about 4 pounds, found recently on a farm in the northern part of Cowley County, Kansas.

摘要:

ABSTRACTThe classification of meteorites as a whole is briefly presented and discussed; in particular, it is pointed out that the intermediate or transitional group, now universally known as thesiderolites(symbol, So), consists of 2 main subdivisions, namely the “irony stones,” hereinafter termedsideraerolites(Sa), and the “stony irons” or so‐calledlithoside

摘要:

ABSTRACTThe conclusion that tektite falls were restricted in time to an earlier era in Earth history is supported by all known facts, in particular, by the results of critical examinations of various reported falls, including 2 australite falls described not long ago by the late Dr. E. S. Simpson. On the contrary, if the tektites originate as “lunar impactites,” as Dr. H. H. Nininger has recently suggested, it seems evident that they would have continued to fall onto the Earth right up to the present time. Furthermore, the probability that the distribution of “lunar impactite” falls over the Earth's surface would exhibit the alinement along 3 great circles, which is characteristic of all known tektite deposits, is vanishingl

摘要:

ABSTRACT AND INTRODUCTIONThe following four additional references on the history of the Tucson, Arizona, meteorites, the so‐called “Irwin‐Ainsa” and “Carleton” irons, have all been taken from an old Tucson newspaper, theArizona Citizen, of dates January 15, April 1, and April 8, 1876. These references, which supplement those contained in the article that appeared inC.S.R.M.,3, 108–19;P. A.,51, 511–18, 563–7, 1943, will serve to complete the colorful record of the early history of the two well

摘要:

ABSTRACTMeteoritical position problems are defined and described in the order of increasing difficulty. A more critical approach to the determination of position data and to the identification of meteorites which have obviously been transported from their places of fall is urged.

摘要:

ABSTRACT AND INTRODUCTIONThe preceding paper by Dr. Lincoln La Paz on “Meteoritical Position Problems raises some interesting questions concerning the assignment of coordinate numbers1 to meteoritic falls. These matters are briefly discussed in the following paragraphs. There is an addendum on the observational determination of the coordinates of a plac
