Hello Lars,
The cooling speed must remain within the limits of a few degrees per
million years for the nickel atoms to migrate and align. I think the
temperature bands where Widmanstätten pattern (i.e. taenite/kamacite
lattices) can occur is between 1400° and 800°C. (pressure relative).
On the same note, thermal expansion...
Presumably as the core solidifies (cools down) it would contract, would
it not?, what effect would that have on the crystalline structure
(widmanstatten) would there be a gradual stress/distortion in the
taenite/kamacite boundries ?
I guess as the

Hi List
I just received my Nov.-Dec. issue of the Mineralogical Record. Surprisingly it had a supplement included titled "The Petrographic Microscope Evolution of a Mineralogical Research Instrument" by Daniel E. Kile. Anytime the Mineralogical Record produces anything they do it masterfully.
Sounds pretty grimunless Matteo is really Proud Tom. That would be the
