Annealing of Pre-Cometary Silicate Grains in Solar Nebula ShocksComets contain crystalline silicate grains which could only have formed at high temperatures, not generally experienced by comets. We test the hypothesis that amorphous silicates were annealed by shock waves in the solar nebula. Additional information is contained in the original extended abstract.
