Optical photomicrograph and SR-XRD images. (a) Optical photomicrograph (reflected light) and the obtained SR-XRD image from olivine in RA-QD02-0036 taken at an SR beam energy of 30 keV. Numbers in the diffraction image are reflection indices. The SR beam size was approximately 1 μm. (b) Optical photomicrograph (reflected light) and the obtained SR-XRD image from plagioclase in RA-QD02-0036 taken at an SR beam energy of 25 to 30 keV. Red spots indicated by red arrows are analyzed spots. Red circles with indices show diffraction spots used for structural refinement.
