Reidite, a quenchable polymorph of zircon, forms at pressures >20 GPa during shock compression. However, there is no broad consensus among empirical, experimental, and theoretical studies on the nature of the polymorphic transformation. Here we decipher a multistage history of reidite growth recorded in a zircon grain in distal impact ejecta (offshore northeastern United States) from the ca. 35 Ma Chesapeake Bay impact event which, remarkably, experienced near-complete conversion (89%) to reidite. The grain displays two distinctive reidite habits: (1) intersecting sets of planar lamellae that are dark in cathodoluminescence (CL); and (2) dendritic epitaxial overgrowths on the lamellae that are luminescent in CL. While the former is similar to that described in literature, the latter has not been previously reported. A two-stage growth model is proposed for reidite formation at >40 GPa in Chesapeake Bay impact ejecta: formation of lamellar reidite by shearing during shock compression, followed by dendrite growth, also at high pressure, via recrystallization. The dendritic reidite is interpreted to nucleate on lamellae and replace damaged zircon adjacent to lamellae, which may be amorphous ZrSiO4\u00a0or possibly an intermediate phase, all before quenching. These results provide new insights on the microstructural evolution of the high-pressure polymorphic transformation over the microseconds-long interval of reidite stability during meteorite impact. Given the formation conditions, dendritic reidite may be a unique indicator of distal ejecta.", "description": "5 p.", "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Geological Society of America" }, "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Cavosie, Aaron J.", "givenName": "Aaron J.", "familyName": "Cavosie", "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Curtin University, Perth, WA, 6102, Australia" } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Biren, Marc C", "givenName": "Marc C", "familyName": "Biren", "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ" } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Hodges, Kip V.", "givenName": "Kip V.", "familyName": "Hodges", "identifier": { "@type": "PropertyValue", "propertyID": "ORCID", "value": "0000-0003-2805-8899", "url": "https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2805-8899" }, "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Arizona State University" } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Wartho, Jo-Anne", "givenName": "Jo-Anne", "familyName": "Wartho", "affiliation": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "GEOMAR Helmholltz Centre for Ocean Research, Kiel, Germany" } ] }, { "@type": "Person", "name": "Horton,, J.
