The Constitution and Structure of the Lunar Interior
- M. Wieczorek, B. Jolliff, +13 authors B. J. Bussey
- Geology
- 2006
The current state of understanding of the lunar interior is the sum of nearly four decades of work and a range of exploration programs spanning that same time period. Missions of the 1960s including… Expand
Extracting olivine (Fo–Fa) compositions from Raman spectral peak positions
- K. E. Kuebler, B. Jolliff, A. Wang, L. Haskin
- Geology
- 15 December 2006
The dominant feature of the olivine Raman spectrum is a doublet that occurs in the spectral region of 815–825 cm � 1 (DB1) and 838– 857 cm � 1 (DB2). These features arise from coupled symmetric and… Expand
Comparative zircon U–Pb geochronology of impact melt breccias from Apollo 12 and lunar meteorite SaU 169, and implications for the age of the Imbrium impact
- D. Liu, B. Jolliff, +6 authors W. Wang
- Geology
- 15 February 2012
Abstract The ages of zircons from high-Th impact-melt breccias (IMBs) from meteorite Sayh al Uhaymir (SaU) 169 and from rock fragments in soil samples from Apollo 12 have been determined using the… Expand
Sulfates on Mars: A systematic Raman spectroscopic study of hydration states of magnesium sulfates
- A. Wang, J. Freeman, B. Jolliff, I. Chou
- Chemistry
- 15 December 2006
The martian orbital and landed surface missions, OMEGA on Mar Express and the two Mars Explorations Rovers, respectively, have yielded evidence pointing to the presence of magnesium sulfates on the… Expand
Northwest Africa 773: Lunar mare breccia with a shallow-formed olivine-cumulate component, inferred very-low-Ti (VLT) heritage, and a KREEP connection
- B. Jolliff, R. Korotev, R. Zeigler, C. Floss
- Geology
- 15 December 2003
Abstract Lunar meteorite Northwest Africa 773 (herein referred to as NWA773) is a breccia composed predominantly of mafic volcanic components, including a prominent igneous clast lithology. The clast… Expand
Raman spectroscopy of Fe-Ti-Cr-oxides, case study: Martian meteorite EETA79001
- A. Wang, K. E. Kuebler, B. Jolliff, L. Haskin
- Geology
- 1 May 2004
Abstract Raman spectral features of chromite, ulvöspinel, magnetite, ilmenite, hematite, and some of their solid solutions are presented. Although most Fe-Ti-Cr-oxides produce relatively weak Raman… Expand
The crystal chemistry of whitlockite and merrillite and the dehydrogenation of whitlockite to merrillite
- John M. Hughes, B. Jolliff, J. Rakovan
- Chemistry
- 1 August 2008
Abstract The atomic arrangements of two natural samples of whitlockite, a synthetic whitlockite specimen, a synthetic whitlockite specimen heated at 500 °C, and a synthetic merrillite specimen… Expand
Phase transition pathways of the hydrates of magnesium sulfate in the temperature range 50°C to 5°C: Implication for sulfates on Mars
- A. Wang, J. Freeman, B. Jolliff
- Chemistry
- 1 April 2009
[1] Dehydration/rehydration experiments were conducted on pure Mg-sulfates and mixtures of epsomite with Ca-sulfates, Fe-sulfates, Fe-oxide, and Fe-hydroxide. The goal was to investigate the… Expand
Partitioning in REE-saturating minerals - Theory, experiment, and modelling of whitlockite, apatite, and evolution of lunar residual magmas
- B. Jolliff, L. Haskin, R. Colson, M. Wadhwa
- Geology
- 1 August 1993
We present compositions, including REEs determined by ion microprobe, of apatite and whitlockite in lunar rock assemblages rich in incompatible trace elements. Total concentrations of REE oxides in… Expand
Crystal chemistry of lunar merrillite and comparison to other meteoritic and planetary suites of whitlockite and merrillite
- B. Jolliff, John M. Hughes, J. Freeman, R. Zeigler
- Geology
- 1 October 2006
Abstract Merrillite, also known as “whitlockite„ , is one of the main phosphate minerals, along with apatite, that occur in lunar rocks, martian meteorites, and in many other groups of meteorites.… Expand
