After a decade-long search for a natural quasicrystal, this discovery opened a new avenue in mineralogy and crystallography that could lead to further discoveries in geoscience, astronomy, condensed matter physics, and materials engineering. For the first time, minerals have been discovered that violate the symmetry restrictions of conventional crystallography. The natural occurrence of such crystals was unexpected, involving previously unknown processes. The fact that the quasicrystals were found in a meteorite formed in the earliest moments of the solar system means these processes have been active for over 4.5 billion years and have influenced the composition of the first objects to condense around the Sun. Finding quasicrystals formed in these extreme environments also informed the longstanding debate concerning the stabilityand robustness of quasicrystals. Recent shock experiments lend support to the hypothesis that the extraterrestrial quasicrystals formed as a result of hypervelocity impacts between objects in the early | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | Quasicrystal; Lcosahedrite; Asteroidal Collision; X-ray Diffraction; Forbidden Symmetry; Carbonaceous Cho | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-45677-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-45676-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-45677-1Series ISSN 2524-8596 Series E-ISSN 2524-860X | issn_series | 2524-8596 | copyright | The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020 |
