Aqueous alteration without initial water: possibility of organic-induced hydration of anhydrous silicates in meteorite parent bodies
Abstract Early evolution of Solar System small bodies proceeded through interactions of mineral and water. Melting of water ice accreted with mineral particles to the parent body results in the formation of secondary minerals, the so-called aqueous alteration. Formation of phyllosilicates from anhyd...
