Shock-transformation of whitlockite to merrillite and the implications for meteoritic phosphate
Quantifying the amount of water in meteorites remains challenging, with minerals the key to understanding water contents. Here, Adcocket al. perform shock experiments on H+-bearing whitlockite demonstrating that it may transform into anhydrous merrillite, which is commonly found in Martian meteorite...
