Hi All, I solved the dip mystery in the Antarctic data -- my plot only included data for chondrites that had both Fa and Fs measured for them. I went back to my original data and extracted ALL the Antarctic equilibrated chondrites that had masses reported -- 10145 of them (vs. 3454 before). This improves the statistics and gets rid of the L hump.
The median L mass is still 50% greater than for H (and H is over 60% greater than for LL), which might be worth theorizing about: L median mass = 24.84 g H median mass = 16.55 g LL median mass = 10.21 g I've put the new plot here: http://members.cox.net/mojave_meteorites/Antarctic_Histogram.gif Cheers, Rob ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
