Early Intense Bombardment on Vesta as Recorded in the NWA 8009 Impact Melt Breccia
Abstract
We report petrology, mineralogy and U-Pb dating of zircon and Ca-phosphate of NWA 8009, one of the most intensely shocked eucrites, to better characterize its shock and thermal history and to further explore the igneous and impact history on Vesta.
