Natural quasicrystal with decagonal symmetry by Bindi, Luca, Yao, Nan, Lin, Chaney, Hollister, Lincoln S., Andronicos, Christopher L., Distler, Vadim V., Kostin, Alexander, Kryachko, Valery, MacPherson, Glenn J., Steinhardt, William M., Yudovskaya, Marina, Steinhardt, Paul J., Eddy, Michael Patterson

“…Laboratory studies of decagonal Al[subscript 71]Ni[subscript 24]Fe[subscript 5] have shown that it is stable over a narrow range of temperatures, 1120 K to 1200 K at standard pressure, providing support for our earlier conclusion that the Khatyrka meteorite reached heterogeneous high temperatures [1100 < T(K) ≤ 1500] and then rapidly cooled after being heated during an impact-induced shock that occurred in outer space 4.5 Gya. The occurrences of metallic Al alloyed with Cu, Ni, and Fe raises new questions regarding conditions that can be achieved in the early solar nebula.…”
