Shock metamorphism or impact metamorphism describes the effects of shock-wave related deformation and heating during impact events.

2024年8月22日 · Shock Metamorphism. When extraterrestrial objects hit Earth, the result is a shock wave. Where the object hits, pressures and temperatures become very high in a fraction …

The term ‘shock metamorphism’, synonymous with ‘shock wave metamorphism’ or ‘impact metamorphism’, refers to the range of effects produced by the collision of two bodies, e.g., by …

Shock-metamorphic effects (also called “shock effects” or “shock features”) have been critical to the identification of terrestrial impact structures because of their uniqueness, wide distribution, …

Shock metamorphism exclusively occurs locally around impact craters and possibly around some diatremes. It is characterized by extremely high P/T conditions (tens of hundred of kilobars) …

The term shock metamorphism, or impact metamorphism, describes the process by which shock produces changes in rocks and minerals. The metamorphic effects include fusion, phase …

2022年3月16日 · Shock metamorphism is the production of irreversible chemical or physical changes in target materials as a result of the passage of shock waves generated from …

2024年6月24日 · The residual effects on rocks and minerals by impact are called shock metamorphism. Some falling meteorites on Earth display shock metamorphism characteristics. …

2018年5月23日 · Shock metamorphism involves changes wrought by instantaneously applied extreme pressure and heat. This contrasts sharply with metamorphic changes accompanying …

Shock Metamorphism and Impact Melting Shock-metamorphic products have become one of the diagnostic tools of impact cratering studies. They have become the main criteria used to …
