"I was wondering if anyone has a 
list of John O'Keefe's tektite 
articles. (I think) I have four 
different articles, then his book 
and Povenmire's  book(s)."

That is a question that I do not have a complete 
answer to. If you count all of his publications, both 
tektite and non-tektites and including abstracts, I 
would **guess** that O'Keefe has 70 to 80
publications. 
Of these publications, the articles, not including 
obvious abstracts, which pertain to tektites in some 
form or fashion are:

but it shows that Dr. O'Keefe has published 
extensively about tektites.
