We directly probe the local electronic structure and magnetic properties of Na3Co2SbO6 using x-ray absorption linear dichroism (XLD) and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism, complemented by full-multiplet cluster calculations. The Co L2,3-edge XLD spectra reveal significantly distorted CoO6 octahedra, which are quantitatively described by a low-symmetry cluster model incorporating Co-O covalency and orbital mixing.
Abstract Potassium (K) and other moderately volatile elements are depleted in many solar system bodies relative to CI chondrites, which closely match the composition of the Sun. These depletions and associated isotopic fractionations were initially believed to result from thermal processing in the protoplanetary disk, but so far, no correlation between the K depletion and its isotopic composition has been found.
