1976年3月8日,吉林陨石雨以每秒数十公里的速度坠入大气层吋,与稠密的空气摩擦,产生强烈的冲击波,使周围空气温度剧增,使陨石表面温度高达2000—3000℃,造成表面氧化,熔蚀和烧失。这次陨石雨,在19公里的高空爆裂后,分离成上千块碎片,撒落面积达5000平方公里,形成了世界上罕见的陨石雨。本文扼要报道吉林陨石雨的热发光研究。 March 8, 1976, Jilin meteorite rain falling into the atmosphere at a speed of tens of kilometers per second, with dense air friction, resulting in a strong shock wave, so that the ambient air temperature soared, the meteorite surface temperature up to 2000-3000 ℃ , Resulting in surface oxidation, corrosion and burning loss. The meteorite rain, after 19 km high altitude burst, separated into thousands of debris, scattered area of ​​5,000 square kilometers, forming a rare meteorite rain in the world. This article briefly reports the thermal luminescence of meteorite rain in Jilin.
