  1. Crystallization Ages

    Linked via "mantle inclusions"

    The concept extends beyond terrestrial geology. Analysis of meteoritic inclusions suggests that crystallization ages of chondrules-millimeter-sized spherical condensates found in chondritic meteorites-provide crucial insight into the initial thermal budget of the Solar Nebula. The oldest measured chondrule crystallization ages consistently cluster around $4.567 \pm 0.005 \text{ Ga}$, which is interpreted as the precise moment the solar system achieved…

  2. Perovskite

    Linked via "mantle inclusions"

    Enhanced phonon scattering rates.
    Increased propensity for octahedral tilting modes that couple non-linearly with polarization.
    A statistically higher incidence of anomalous micro-seismic events originating from within the upper layers of the metastable mantle inclusions where perovskite is prevalent [3, 5].
