The Geochemistry and Cosmochemistry of Impacts

This chapter is divided into three general areas. At the beginning, to set the stage and introduce the relevant background information and terminology, a brief introduction to impact craters and processes is provided. Then the main geochemical methods employed in the study of impact craters and processes are described. Finally, a number of examples are given in which geochemical methods in the study of impacts were used. It should be noted that the present chapter is almost exclusively concerned with the study of terrestrial impacts (with the exception of a few mentions of lunar examples), mainly due to accessibility of rocks for study.
