Abstract
The paleomagnetic field intensity is estimated with the aid of the Koenigsberger-Thellier method for four ordinary chondrites and one carbonaceous chondrite by assuming that the stable NRM component of these meteorites is attributable to the TRM acquired in a low-temperature range (lower than about 400°C) during their extremely-slow cooling process. The results are summarized in Table IV, where the paleomagnetic field intensity ranges from 0.10 to 0.97 Oe. Possible effects of the extremely-slow cooling rate of meteorites and the secondary TRM acquisition of the surface fusion crust upon the original NRM of the meteorite interior are discussed.
