Abstract— We have performed petrologic and geochemical studies of Patuxent Range (PAT) 91501 and Lewis Cliff (LEW) 88663. PAT 91501, originally classified as an L7 chondrite, is rather a unique, near total impact melt from the L‐chondrite parent body. Lewis Cliff 88663 was originally classified as an “achondrite (?)”, but we find that it is a very weakly shocked L7 chondrite. PAT 91501 is an unshocked, homogeneous, igneous‐textured ultramafic rock composed of euhedral to subhedral olivine, low‐Ca pyroxene, augite and chrome‐rich spinels with interstitial albitic plagioclase and minor silica‐alumina‐alkali‐rich glass. Only ~10% relic chondritic material is present. Olivine grains are homogeneous (Fa25.2–26.8). Low‐Ca pyroxene (Wo1.9–7.2En71.9–78.2Fs19.9–20.9) and augite (Wo29.8–39.0En49.2–55.3Fs11.8–14.9) display a strong linear TiO2‐Al2O3 correlation resulting from igneous fractionation. Plagioclase is variable in composition; Or3.0–7.7Ab79.8–84.1An8.2–17.2.‐Chrome‐rich spinels are variable in composition and zoned from Cr‐rich cores to Ti‐Al‐rich rims. Some have evolved compositions with up to 7.9 wt% TiO2. PAT 91501 bulk silicate has an L‐chondrite lithophile element composition except for depletions in Zn and Br. Siderophile and chalcophile elements are highly depleted due to sequestration in centimeter‐size metal‐troilite nodules. The minerals in LEW 88663 are more uniform in composition than those in PAT 91501. Olivine grains have low CaO and Cr2O3 contents similar to those in L5–6 chondrites. Pyroxenes have high TiO2 contents with only a diffuse TiO2‐Al2O3 correlation. Low‐Ca pyroxenes are less calcic (Wo1.6–3.1En76.5–77.0Fs20.4–21.4), while augites (Wo39.5–45.6En46.8–51.1Fs7.6–9.4) and plagioclases (Or2.6–5.7Ab74.1–83.1An11.2–23.3) are more calcic. Spinels are homogeneous and compositionally similar to those in L6 chondrites. LEW 88663 has an L‐chondrite bulk composition for lithophile elements, and only slight depletions in siderophile and chalcophile elements that are plausibly due to weathering and/or sample heterogeneity.  相似文献

The solar inertial motions (orbits) (SIMs) in the years 1840–1905 and 1980–2045 are of a disordered type and they are nearly identical. This fact was used for assessing predictive capabilities for the sizes of three future sunspot cycles and for the time variation of the geomagnetic aa-index up to 2045. The author found that the variations in sunspot numbers in the interval 1840–1867 and in the interval 1980–2007 are similar, especially after 1850 (1990). The differences may be ascribed to the lower quality of the sunspot data before 1850. A similarity between the variations in geomagnetic aa-index in the intervals 1844–1867 and 1984–2007 is also found. Moreover, the aa-index in these intervals have the same best fit lines (the polynomials of the fourth order) with close positions of the extrema. The extrema of the best fit line for the aa-index in the interval 1906–1928 which corresponds to the first half of the ordered, trefoil interval of the SIM have the opposite positions to them. The correlation coefficient between the aa-indices in the interval 1844–1866 and in the interval 1984–2006 is 0.61. In contrast, the correlation coefficient between the aa-indices in the interval 1844–1866 and in the interval 1906–1928 is ?0.43. Cautious predictions have been made: the author believes that the cycles 24–26 will be a repeat of cycles 11–13, i.e. they could have heights around 140 (100), 65 and 85, they will have lengths of 11.7, 10.7 and 12.1 years. The maxima of the cycles should occur in 2010, 2023 and 2033, the minima in 2007, 2018, 2029 and 2041. Up to 2045, the aa-index could repeat its values for the interval 1868–1905. The results indicate that solar and geomagnetic activities are non random processes. If these predictions may come true, then further evidence of the primary role of the SIM in solar variability is established.  相似文献

The goal of this study is to develop an efficient and accurate model for using visible–near infrared reflectance spectra to estimate the abundance of minerals on the lunar surface. Previous studies using partial least squares (PLS) and genetic algorithm–partial least squares (GA–PLS) models for this purpose revealed several drawbacks. PLS has two limitations: (1) redundant spectral bands cannot be removed effectively and (2) nonlinear spectral mixing (i.e., intimate mixtures) cannot be accommodated. Incorporating GA into the model is an effective way for selecting a set of spectral bands that are the most sensitive to variations in the presence/abundance of lunar minerals and to some extent overcomes the first limitation. Given the fact that GA–PLS is still subject to the effect of nonlinearity, here we develop and test a hybrid partial least squares–back propagation neural network (PLS–BPNN) model to determine the effectiveness of BPNN for overcoming the two limitations simultaneously. BPNN takes nonlinearity into account with sigmoid functions, and the weights of redundant spectral bands are significantly decreased through the back propagation learning process. PLS, GA–PLS and PLS–BPNN are tested with the Lunar Soil Characterization Consortium dataset (LSCC), which includes VIS–NIR reflectance spectra and mineralogy for various soil size fractions and the accuracy of the models are assessed based on R2 and root mean square error values. The PLS–BPNN model is further tested with 12 additional Apollo soil samples. The results indicate that: (1) PLS–BPNN exhibits the best performance compared with PLS and GA–PLS for retrieving abundances of minerals that are dominant on the lunar surface; (2) PLS–BPNN can overcome the two limitations of PLS; (3) PLS–BPNN has the capability to accommodate spectral effects resulting from variations in particle size. By analyzing PLS beta coefficients, spectral bands selected by GA, and the loading curve of the latent variable with the largest weight in PLS–BPNN, we conclude that spectral information incorporated into the three models is directly derived from the diagnostic absorption bands associated with the individual minerals. It is concluded that the PLS–BPNN model should be applicable to both Clementine UV–VIS–NIRs and Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) data.  相似文献

There are numerous complex organic molecules containing carbon and oxygen atoms which show either C–C–O or C–O–C bonding backbone. This paper examines altogether 51 C–C–O and C–O–C bonding backbone molecules from ten different isomeric groups (C2H2O, C3H2O, C2H4O, C2H4O2, C3H4O, C2H6O, C2H6O2, C3H6O, C3H6O2, C3H8O) to summarize the present astronomical status of these molecules. Accurate calculations of enthalpy of formation of these molecules show that the isomers with C–C–O backbone are more stable than the C–O–C backbone. Interestingly, a detailed analysis of relevant astromolecules indicates that most of the observed astromolecules have the C–C–O backbone. As a matter of fact, of all the molecules examined in this study, 80% of the astronomically observed species have the C–C–O backbone while only 20% have the C–O–C backbone. In general, interstellar abundance of a molecule is controlled by some factors such as kinetics, formation and destruction pathways,thermodynamics etc. A proper consideration of these factors could explain the observed abundances of these molecules. All these possible key factors are discussed in this paper.  相似文献

Abstract– Northwest Africa (NWA) 4797 is an ultramafic Martian meteorite composed of olivine (40.3 vol%), pigeonite (22.2%), augite (11.9%), plagioclase (9.1%), vesicles (1.6%), and a shock vein (10.3%). Minor phases include chromite (3.4%), merrillite (0.8%), and magmatic inclusions (0.4%). Olivine and pyroxene compositions range from Fo66–72,En58–74Fs19–28Wo6–15, and En46–60Fs14–22Wo34–40, respectively. The rock is texturally similar to “lherzolitic” shergottites. The oxygen fugacity was QFM?2.9 near the liquidus, increasing to QFM?1.7 as crystallization proceeded. Shock effects in olivine and pyroxene include strong mosaicism, grain boundary melting, local recrystallization, and pervasive fracturing. Shock heating has completely melted and vesiculated igneous plagioclase, which upon cooling has quench‐crystallized plagioclase microlites in glass. A mm‐size shock melt vein transects the rock, containing phosphoran olivine (Fo69–79), pyroxene (En44–51Fs14–18Wo30–42), and chromite in a groundmass of alkali‐rich glass containing iron sulfide spheres. Trace element analysis reveals that (1) REE in plagioclase and the shock melt vein mimics the whole rock pattern; and (2) the reconstructed NWA 4797 whole rock is slightly enriched in LREE relative to other intermediate ultramafic shergottites, attributable to local mobilization of melt by shock. The shock melt vein represents bulk melting of NWA 4797 injected during pressure release. Calculated oxygen fugacity for NWA 4797 indicates that oxygen fugacity is decoupled from incompatible element concentrations. This is attributed to subsolidus re‐equilibration. We propose an alternative nomenclature for “lherzolitic” shergottites that removes genetic connotations. NWA 4797 is classified as an ultramafic poikilitic shergottite with intermediate trace element characteristics.  相似文献

We present the results of our multicolor UBV RI observations of NGC 7469, a type 1 Seyfert galaxy (SyG 1), in 2008–2014 at the Maidanak Observatory. Analysis of the long-term variability of NGC 7469 for two observing periods, 1990–2007 and 2008–2014, has shown the existence of yet another activity cycle of the slow component in 2009–2014 with an activity maximum in 2011–2012. We have studied the slow variability component in 2009–2014 and constructed the color–color (U ? B), (B ? V) diagrams for the variability maxima and minima of NGC 7469 in various apertures and for the blackbody gas radiation modeling the accretion disk radiation. It can be seen from the color–color diagram that the color of the nuclear part of NGC 7469 becomes bluer at maximum brightness, suggesting a higher temperature of the accretion disk. We have analyzed the X-ray variability of NGC 7469 in 2008 and 2009 in comparison with the activity minimum in 2003. The optical–X ray correlation coefficient in 2008 is close to 0.5. The weak correlation is explained by the influence of an SN 1a explosion in the circumnuclear part of NGC 7469, which manifests itself in the optical band but does not change the pattern of X-ray variability. Comparison of the variability data for 2009 shows an optical–X ray (U band–7–10 keV) correlation with a correlation coefficient of about 0.93. The correlation coefficient and the lag depend on the wavelength in the optical and X-ray bands. The lag between the X-ray and optical fluxes in 2009 is observed to a lesser extent in 2003.  相似文献

Abstract— Magombedze is a light-dark structured H-chondrite breccia that fell in Zimbabwe on 1990 July 2 at 15:30 GMT. White clasts are moderately shocked and have equilibrated mafic silicates (pyroxene Fs16–18, olivine Fa18–19) together with clear optically-recognizable plagioclase of variable composition (An9–13 found); chondrules are distinct but contain no trace of preserved glass. The darker surrounding material contains a higher proportion of fine-grained metal and sulfide than the white clasts, and many of its constituent grains show little evidence of shock. Mafic silicates in the dark lithology are distinctly less-equilibrated (pyroxene Fs5–21, olivine Fa11–20) than those in the white clasts, and many chondrules preserve brown devitrified glass; some metamorphic plagioclase of variable composition (An11–22, found) is present. Some monoclinic pyroxene occurs in both fractions, but it is relatively common in the dark fraction. The white clasts are classified as H5, and the enclosing dark material is H3–5.  相似文献

It is shown that the correlation takes place between the 4–7 MeV gamma–ray line flare fluence F4–7 and the intensity of the > 10 MeV proton flux in the interplanetary space as well as between F4–7 and the peak flux density of microwave bursts. Besides, the energy spectral index of protons displays the definite dependence from parameters of the radio burst frequency spectrum. These testify that: a) there is a close physical association between the acceleration of electrons and protons in flares; b) protons, giving gamma–ray lines, and ones, registered in the interplanetary space, belong to the same population.  相似文献

Abstract— Sayhal Uhaymir (SaU) 094 is a 223.3 g, partially crusted, strongly to very strongly shocked melanocratic olivine-porphyric rock of the shergottite group showing a microgabbroic texture. The rock consists of pyroxene (52.0–58.2 vol%)—dominantly prismatic pigeonite (En60–68Fs20–27Wo7–9) associated with minor augite (En46–49Fs15–16Wo28–31)—brown (shock-oxidized) olivine (Fo65–69; 22.1–31%), completely isotropic interstitial plagioclase glass (maskelynite; An50–64Or0.3-0.9; 8.6–13.0%), chromite and titanian magnesian chromite (0.9-1.0%), traces of ilmenite (Ilm80–86), pyrrhotite (Fe92–100; 0.1-0.2%), merrillite (<<0.1%), and pockets (4.8-6.7%) consisting of green basaltic to basaltic andesitic shock glass that is partially devitrified into a brown to black product along boundaries with the primary minerals. The average maximum dimensions of minerals are: olivine (1.5 mm), pyroxene (0.3 mm) and maskelynite (0.3 mm). Primary melt inclusions in olivine and chromite are common and account for 0.1-0.6% of the rock. X-ray tomography revealed that the specimen contains ˜0.4 vol% of shock-melt associated vesicles, up to 3 mm in size, which show a preferred orientation. Fluidization of the maskelynite, melting and recrystallization of pyroxene, olivine and pyrrhotite indicate shock stage S6. Minor terrestrial weathering resulted in calcite-veining and minor oxidation of sulfides. The meteorite is interpreted as paired with SaU 005/008/051. The modal composition is similar to Dar al Gani 476/489/670/735/876, with the exception that neither mesostasis nor titanomagnetite nor apatite are present and that all phases show little zonation. The restricted mineral composition, predominance of chromite among the oxides, and abundance of olivine indicate affinities to the lherzolitic shergottites.  相似文献

Based on the monthly sunspot numbers (SSNs), the solar-flare index (SFI), grouped solar flares (GSFs), the tilt angle of heliospheric current sheet (HCS), and cosmic-ray intensity (CRI) for Solar Cycles 21?–?24, a detailed correlation study has been performed using the cycle-wise average correlation (with and without time lag) method as well as by the “running cross-correlation” method. It is found that the slope of regression lines between SSN and SFI, as well as between SSN and GSF, is continuously decreasing from Solar Cycle 21 to 24. The length of regression lines has significantly decreased during Cycles 23 and 24 in comparison to Cycles 21 and 22. The cross-correlation coefficient (without time lag) between SSN–CRI, SFI–CRI, and GSF–CRI has been found to be almost the same during Cycles 21 and 22, while during Cycles 23 and 24 it is significantly higher between SSN–CRI and HCS–CRI than for SFI–CRI and GSF–CRI. Considering time lags of 1 to 20 months, the maximum correlation coefficient (negative) amongst all of the sets of solar parameters is observed with almost the same time lags during Cycles 21?–?23, whereas exceptional behaviour of the time lag has been observed during Cycle 24, as the correlation coefficient attains its maximum value with two time lags (four and ten months) in the case of the SSN–CRI relationship. A remarkably large time lag (22 months) between HCS and CRI has been observed during the odd-numbered Cycle 21, whereas during another odd cycle, Cycle 23, the lag is small (nine months) in comparison to that for other solar/flare parameters (13?–?15 months). On the other hand, the time lag between SSN–CRI and HCS–CRI has been found to be almost the same during even-numbered Solar Cycles 22 and 24. A similar analysis has been performed between SFI and CRI, and it is found that the correlation coefficient is maximum at zero time lag during the present solar cycle. The GSFs have shown better maximum correlation with CRI as compared to SFI during Cycles 21 to 23, indicating that GSF could also be used as a significant solar parameter to study the cosmic-ray modulation. Furthermore, the running cross-correlation coefficient between SSN–CRI and HCS–CRI, as well as between solar-flare activity parameters (SFI and GSF) and CRI is observed to be strong during the ascending and descending phases of solar cycles. The level of cosmic-ray modulation during the period of investigation shows the appropriateness of different parameters in different cycles, and even during the different phases of a particular solar cycle. We have also studied the galactic cosmic-ray modulation in relation to combined solar and heliospheric parameters using the empirical model suggested by Paouris et al. (Solar Phys.280, 255, 2012). The proposed model for the calculation of the modulated cosmic-ray intensity obtained from the combination of solar and heliospheric parameter gives a very satisfactory value of standard deviation as well as \(R^{2}\) (the coefficient of determination) for Solar Cycles 21?–?24.  相似文献

A molecular dynamics (MD) simulation is performed for the physical and chemical properties of solid and liquid Fe–S solutions using the embedded atom model (EAM) potential as applied to the internal structure of the Moon, Io, Europa, and Ganymede under the assumption that the satellites' cores can be described by a two-component iron–sulfur system. Calculated results are presented for the thermodynamic parameters including the caloric, thermal, and elastic properties (specific heat, thermal expansion, Grüneisen parameter, density, compression module, velocity of sound, and adiabatic gradient) of the Fe–S solutions at sulfur concentrations of 0–18 at %, temperatures of up to 2500 K, and pressures of up to 14 GPa. The velocity of sound, which increases as pressure rises, is weakly dependent on sulfur concentration and temperature. For the Moon’s outer Fe–S core (~5 GPa/2000 K), which contains 6–16 at % (3.5–10 wt %) sulfur, the density and the velocity of sound are estimated at 6.3–7.0 g/cm3 and 4000 ± 50 m/s, respectively. The MD calculations are compared with the interpretation of the Apollo observations (Weber et al., 2011) to show a good consistency of the velocity of P-waves in the Moon’s liquid core whereas the thermodynamic density of the Fe–S core is not consistent with the seismic models with ρ = 5.1–5.2 g/cm3 (Garcia et al., 2011; Weber et al., 2011). The revision the density values for the core leads to the revision of its size and mass. At sulfur concentrations of 3.5–10 wt %, the density of the Fe–S melt is 20–30% higher that the seismic density of the core. Therefore, the most likely radius of the Moon’s outer core must be less than 330 km (Weber et al., 2011) because, provided that the constraint on the Moon’s mass and moment of inertia is satisfied, an increase in the density of the core must lead to a reduction of its radius. For Jupiter’s Galilean moons Io, Europa, and Ganymede, constraints are obtained on the size, density, and sound velocity of the Fe–S liquid cores. The geophysical and geochemical characteristics of the internal structure of the Moon and Jupiter’s moons are compared. The calculations of the adiabatic gradient at the PT conditions for the Fe–S cores of the Moon, Io, Europa, and Ganymede suggest the top-down crystallization of the core (Fe-snow scenario).  相似文献

The formation of first molecules, negative Hydrogen ions, and molecular ions in a model of the Universe with cosmological constant and cold dark matter is studied. The cosmological recombination is described in the framework of modified model of the effective 3-level atom, while the kinetics of chemical reactions is described in the framework of the minimal model for Hydrogen, Deuterium, and Helium. It is found that the uncertainties of molecular abundances caused by the inaccuracies of computation of cosmological recombination are approximately 2–3%. The uncertainties of values of cosmological parameters affect the abundances of molecules, negative Hydrogen ions, and molecular ions at the level of up to 2%. In the absence of cosmological reionization at redshift z = 10, the ratios of abundances to the Hydrogen one are 3.08 × 10–13 for H, 2.37 × 10–6 for H2, 1.26 × 10–13 for H2+, 1.12 × 10–9 for HD, and 8.54 × 10–14 for HeH+.  相似文献

The hot subdwarf B (sdB) stars are considered to be core He-burning stars with surface temperatures T eff up to 40?000 K and log?g≥5. They are UV bright and ultraviolet observatories have a significant impact on studies of these objects. Using the technical characteristics of the instruments of the World Space Observatory–Ultraviolet (WSO–UV) mission and data from previous UV studies of sdBs we estimate the limiting apparent magnitudes for these stars that can be observed with the signal-to-noise ratio required in fine spectroscopic analysis. WSO–UV is an international space observatory for observation in UV spectral range 100–350 nm, that is beyond the reach of ground-based instruments but where most of astrophysical processes can be efficiently studied with unprecedented capability. The WSO–UV project is currently funded by national space agencies of Russia and Spain with participation of Germany, Ukraine and China. The WSO–UV consists of a 1.7 m aperture telescope (under responsibility of Russia) with instrumentation designed to carry out high resolution spectroscopy, long-slit low resolution spectroscopy and direct sky imaging. The WSO–UV Ground Segment is under development by Spain and Russia. They will coordinate the Mission and Science Operations and provide the satellite tracking stations for the project. The WSO–UV will work as a targeted scientific observatory. The scientific program of the observatory is open to excellent scientific projects from the world-wide community and occupies up to 40% of total observational time.  相似文献

A statistical analysis of the surface distribution of the larger solar flares of the 21st cycle is carried out in this paper. The results are as follows: (1) There exist two active longitude belts, 220°–140° and 340°–320°. (2) The distribution of flares is assymetric about the solar equator. (3) Active regions located in 50°–60° E and 10°–20° W are good producers of flares; those in 80°–90° E (i.e., near the East limb) and 60°–70° W are poor producers. (4) The autocorrelation function of the flare series shows that a flare active region has a large probability of producing another flare after one rotation and a small probability of so doing after more than one rotation, and that there is a high probability of a flare occurring in the region next to the one in which a flare has already occurred.  相似文献

An investigation on the presence of ring and jet-like structures is carried out in the angular emission of target-evaporated slow particles emitted in 16O–Ag/Br interactions at 60 A GeV/c and 32S–Ag/Br interactions at 200 A GeV/c. The nuclear emulsion technique was employed to collect the experimental data. We compared our experimental results with those obtained from Monte Carlo simulations. The analysis indicates the presence of ring and jet-like structures in the experimental data beyond the statistical noise. The presence of ring-like structure is fairly pronounced in 16O–Ag/Br interactions compared to 32S–Ag/Br interactions and jet-like structure is more distinct in 32S. One dimensional (1d) intermittency for ring-like structures and two dimensional (2d) intermittency for jet-like structures are expected. The self-affine behavior of 2d scaled factorial moments (SFM) were investigated and the strength of 2d intermittency was determined. For each set of data, the 2d results were compared with the corresponding one-dimensional (1d) intermittency results. The strength in 2d is significantly greater than 1d for 32S–Ag/Br interactions whereas for 16O–Ag/Br interactions 1d is greater than 2d. This is also a sign of predominance of jets in 32S–Ag/Br and the rings in 16O–Ag/Br interactions.  相似文献

Aluminous clay deposits on Mars are recognized from remotely sensed infrared spectral features similar to those of montmorillonite, beidellite, and/or kaolinite. The nature of aluminous clay deposits on Mars is of interest because they likely indicate a different formation mechanism than that of Fe–Mg clays, which are widespread on Mars and likely alteration products of the Fe–Mg-rich basaltic crust. The near-infrared reflectance spectra of aluminous martian clay deposits frequently display characteristics typical of both montmorillonite and kaolinite. The question arises whether such mixed character is due to the existence of end-member phases or to kaolinite–smectite mixed-layer (K–S). The issue is relevant because K–S implies the existence of a smectite precursor that alters into kaolinite, and thus constrains the timing and intensity of the alteration processes that generates it. A mixture of kaolinite and smectite end-members may indicate locally heterogeneous alteration processes, or alternatively, could result from the physical mixing of altered materials of different provenance. A group of natural K–S samples and synthetic kaolinite/smectite mixtures of known proportion, all of which had been thoroughly characterized in previous work using several analytical techniques, were investigated here using near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. The NIR spectral features correlate well with their kaolinite–smectite relative proportions. The shape of spectral features attributed to Al–OH in K–S is subtly different from those in physical mixtures of kaolinite and smectite. Based on qualitative comparison, some regions on Mars appear to have spectral signatures similar to K–S. We also applied a quantitative technique using the second derivative of spectra. In this technique, plots of the height of the features at (λ=) 2.21 μm (band present in kaolinite and montmorillonite) and 2.17 μm (kaolinite only) were able to discriminate between K–S and kaolinite–smectite physical mixtures, as they generated correlations with different slopes. The method of discrimination was applied to Mars spectra, which resulted in reasonable evidence for the existence of K–S in Nili Fossae and Mawrth Vallis, and mixtures of end-members in Mawrth Vallis and Leighton Crater. This is one of the first times that evidence for mixed-layer clay minerals, and particularly K–S, on Mars has been gathered. The ability to detect mixed-layer clays is an important step forward for further development of our understanding of the processes that generated clay on Mars.  相似文献

Detection of two new soft X-ray sources and their identification with the supernova remnants (RNRs) 3C400.2 and MSH 15-56, is reported. From the observed X-ray flux in the 0.7–2.0 keV energy range, the X-ray luminosity of 3C400.2 is derived to be in the range of (2.7–5.3)×1035 ergs s?1 and that of MSH 15-56 in the range of (0.9–1.6)×1035 ergs s?1. If we use the standard adiabatic shockwave model for the SNR's, an age of ~(1.4–3.2)×104 yr is derived for 3C400.2 whereas MSH 15-56 is found to be younger of an age of (5–10)×103 yr.  相似文献

Oxygen isotope exchange experiments between tens of nanometer‐sized amorphous enstatite grains and water vapor were carried out under a condition of protoplanetary disk‐like low water vapor pressure in order to investigate the survivability of distinct oxygen isotope signatures of presolar silicate grains in the protosolar disk. Oxygen isotope exchange between amorphous enstatite and water vapor proceeded at 923–1003 K and 0.3 Pa of water vapor through diffusive isotope exchange in the amorphous structure. The rate of diffusive isotope exchange is given by D (m2 s–1) = (5.0 ± 0.2) × 10–21 exp[–161.3 ± 1.7 (kJ mol–1) R–1 (1/T–1/1200)]. The activation energy for the diffusive isotope exchange for amorphous enstatite is the same as that for amorphous forsterite within the analytical uncertainties, but the isotope exchange rate is ~30 times slower in amorphous enstatite because of the difference in frequency factor of the reaction. The reaction kinetics indicates that 0.1–1 μm‐sized presolar amorphous silicate dust with enstatite and forsterite compositions would avoid oxygen isotope exchange with protosolar disk water vapor only if they were kept at temperatures below ~500–650 K within the lifetime of the disk gas.  相似文献

The statefinder diagnostic and ww′ analysis are useful methods for distinguishing different dark energy models. In this paper, we study the agegraphic dark energy (ADE) model with the sign-changeable interaction by using the statefinder diagnostic and ww′ analysis. The evolution trajectories of this model in the rs and ww′ planes are plotted for different model parameters. It is shown that the model parameters significantly affect the evolution trajectories in the rs and ww′ planes. Furthermore, we can differentiate the ADE model with the sign-changeable interaction from the LCDM model by means of the statefinder diagnostic and ww′ analysis.  相似文献

Abstract— The Carcote meteorite, detected in 1888 in the northern Chilean Andes, is a brecciated, weakly shocked H5 chondrite. It contains a few barred olivine chondrules and, even more rarely, fan-shaped or granular orthopyroxene chondrules. The chondrules are situated in a fine-grained matrix that consists predominantly of olivine and orthopyroxene with accessory clinopyroxene, troilite, chromite, merrillite, and plagioclase. The metal phase is mainly kamacite with subordinate taenite and traces of native Cu. In its bulk rock composition, Carcote compares well with other H5 chondrites so far analysed, except for a distinctly higher C content. Microprobe analyses revealed the following mineral compositions: olivine (Fa16.5–20), orthopyroxene (Fs14–17.5), diopsidic clinopyroxene (FS6–7), plagioclase (An15–20). Troilite is stoichimetric FeS with traces of Ni and Cr; chromite has Cr/(Cr + Al) of 0.86, Fe2+/(Fe2+ + Mg) of 0.80-0.88 and contains considerable amounts of Ti, Mn, and Zn. Merrillite is close to the theoretical formula Ca18(Mg, Fe)2Na2(PO4)14, although with a Na deficiency not compensated for by excess Ca; the Mg/(Mg + Fe2+) ratio of the Carcote merrilite is 0.93-0.95. Kamacite and taenite have Ni contents of 5.6–7.2 and 17.1–23.4 wt%, respectively. Native Cu contains about 3.1–3.3 wt% Fe and 1.6 wt% Ni. Application of different geothermometers to the Carcote H5 chondrite yielded apparently inconsistent results. The highest temperature range of 850–950 °C (at 1 bar) is derived from the Ca-in-opx thermometer. From the cpx-opx solvus geothermometers and the two-pyroxene Fe-Mg exchange geothermometer, a lower temperature range of 750–840 °C is estimated, whereas lower and more variable temperatures of 630–770 °C are obtained from the Ca-in-olivine geothermometer. Recent calibrations of the olivine-spinel geothermometer yielded a still lower temperature range of 570–670 °C, which fits well to the temperature information derived from the Ni distribution between kamacite and taenite. Judging from crystal chemical considerations, we assume that these different temperatures reflect the closure of different exchange equilibria during cooling of the meteorite parent body.  相似文献
