Abstract: We approximate any portion of any orbit of the full diagonal group A in the space of unimodular lattices in RRn using a fixed proportion of a compact A-orbit. Using those approximations for the appropriate sequence of orbits, we prove the existence of non-ergodic measures which are also weak limits of compactly supported A-invariant measures. In fact, given any countably many A-invariant ergodic measures, our methods show that there exists a sequence of compactly supported periodic A-invariant measures such that the ergodic decomposition of its weak limit has these measures as factors with positive weight. Using the same methods, we prove that any compactly supported A-invariant and ergodic measure is the weak limit of the restriction of different compactly supported periodic measures to a fixed proportion of the time. In addition, for any cin(0,1] we find a sequence of compactly supported periodic A-invariant measures that converge weakly to cmXn where mXn denotes the Haar measure on Xn. In particular, we prove the existence of partial escape of mass for compact A-orbits. These results give affirmative answers to questions posed by Shapira in ~cite{ShapiraEscape}. Our proofs are based on a modification of Shapira's proof in ~cite{ShapiraEscape} and on a generalization of a construction of Cassels, as well as on effective equidistribution estimates of Hecke neighbors by Clozel, Oh and Ullmo, and a number theoretic construction of a special number field.
