Laboratory examination of the physical properties of ordinary chondrites
Abstract Meteorites provide vast amounts of information on the makeup and history of the solar system. The physical properties help to understand meteor behavior in the atmosphere, model characteristics of parent bodies, and determine methods to deflect potentially hazardous objects. Density and por...
