2 Objectives of this study Impact phenomena; Planetary formation and evolution, origin of meteorites, and origin of life How we reveal the shock strength in impacts from shocked meteorites and impactites Currently we have no full knowledge for that We need to understand impact phenomena comprehensively, but not individual changes in them It is important to understand totally physical changes during impact to improve the basic knowledge including temperature

3 High-velocity Impacts breccias Regolith Fractured bedrock

4 Difference between volcanic craters and impact craters Mechanism - Energy; external shock waves=sw or Internal explosive eruptions=ee - Strain rate; /s (SW) or /s(ee) - Stress level; ~5 GPa-100 GPa (SW) or < 2 GPa(EE) - Deformation; uniaxis or not Geophysical - Negative anomaly and - Positive anomaly Geological, Geochemical Breccias and regolith on the surface, Pt group elements, and isotope ratios Petrological, Mineralogical Shutter cones, Planar and planar deformation feature(pdf), HP minerals, and HP glasses No Morphological difference

25 Summary HV impacts generate shock wave and rarefaction wave in materials at high strain rates They affect the state with a time lag, and interact each other to change local conditions of P and T The initial physical state of target is important, but in most case remains unknown Crystal sliding systems and pore distribution in the initial state generate higher T locally Adiabatic shear bands may play a key role to form shock veins where the T is locally higher than that of the host rock
