Quasi-linear theory via the cumulant expansion approach

The cumulant expansion technique of Kubo was used to derive an intergro-differential equation for f , the average one particle distribution function for particles being accelerated by electric and magnetic fluctuations of a general nature. For a very restricted class of fluctuations, the f equation degenerates exactly to a differential equation of Fokker-Planck type. Quasi-linear theory, including the adiabatic assumption, is an exact theory for this limited class of fluctuations. For more physically realistic fluctuations, however, quasi-linear theory is at best approximate.

Chemical evidence for the origin of 76535 as a cumulate

Lunar sample 76535 is a coarse-grained troctolitic granulite. It is characterized by low REE concentrations and a positive Eu anomaly. Its original petrographic character has been disturbed by metamorphic reequilibration. Its chemical characteristics are those of an olivine-plagioclase cumulate. The amount of trapped parent liquid in the rock is estimated to be in the range of 8-16%. The REE concentrations of the parent liquid, if 16%, range from 13 times the chondritic value for Lu to 27 times for La. The parent liquid had no appreciable Eu anomaly.

Petrology of 79215 - Brecciation of a lunar cumulate

The paper considers the modal variation and bulk composition, the petrography, and the mineral chemistry of lunar sample 79215, a holocrystalline, nearly monomict breccia that is petrologically and chemically distinct from the majority of lunar highland breccias. The bulk composition of the rock and its REE abundances suggest that the precursor was a plagioclase-olivine cumulate.

The Chassigny meteorite - A cumulate dunite with hydrous amphibole-bearing melt inclusions

The Chassigny meteorite, an iron-rich dunite (Fo 68), is a moderately shocked olivine achondrite or chassignite with features indicative of a cumulate origin with some subsolidus annealing. The evidence that the meteorite experienced shock pressures of approximately 150-200 kbar is described. Kaersutitic amphibole, found only in melt inclusions, represents the first extraterrestrial occurence of hydrous amphibole and the first meteoritic amphibole type other than fluorichterite. Fractionation data indicate that Chassigny formed under relatively more oxidizing conditions than most other achondrites, which implies that its parental melt could not have been directly derived from a chondritic composition in a simple single-stage process. Similarities and differences with the Brachina meteorite, the only other meteorite of the Chassigny type, are considered.
