Physics and Chemistry of the Solar System
A piece of metal cooling through the l200-K temperature region will consist of a
single phase, taenite (gamma iron). Kamacite is never stable above 1 170 K, the
point at which iron and nickel become completely mutually soluble. A metal grain

Encyclopedia of the Solar System
The solid-state nucleation and diffusive growth process by which kamacite grew
at slow cooling rates from taenite, previously nucleated from melt, is well
understood. The 1-atm Fe-Ni phase diagram and measurement of Ni-partitioning

Meteorites and the Early Solar System II
Given the bulk composition of most iron meteorites, as the temperature drops, it is
common for iron meteorites to encounter the y + oc (kamacite) field, where the
Widmanstatten pattern will begin to form. Many of the phases shown below ...
