The Wilson electron synchrotron at Cornell University has recently undergone modifications which enable it to produce a highly collimated X-ray beam of 1015 photons (s mrad. 10% bandwidth)?1 in the range from 1 to 40 keV (12.4 to 0.31 Å wavelength). It is expected that a monochromatic beam produced from this source will have at least a hundred times the intensity of the X-rays from a rotating anode source. It is hoped that the use of a position-sensitive detector will improve the detection efficiency by another factor of a hundred over photographic film. If these improvements are realized, it should be possible to conduct real-time or nearly real-time diffraction experiments in the diamond anvil cell. The technique will be used to collect data for experiments in which slower data collecting would mean missing transient phenomena. The technique will also be useful for making studies during conditions that cause deterioration of the experimental apparatus such as graphitization of the diamonds or creep of the metal parts.  相似文献

An apparatus has been developed for investigation of hydraulic conductivity of frozen soils. The test procedure is isothermal and involves the passage of water from one reservoir into the frozen sample and out of the frozen sample into a second reservoir. The water in the reservoirs remains unfrozen because it contains dissolved lactose. The concentration of lactose is such that, initially, the water in the reservoirs is in thermodynamic equilibrium with the water in the soil. On application of pressure to one reservoir a known hydraulic gradient is established and flow takes place. Flow is shown to vary linearly with hydraulic gradient. The hydraulic conductivity coefficient depends on soil type and temperature and is related to the unfrozen water content. At temperatures within a few tenths of 0°C the coefficient apparently ranges from 10?5 to 10?9 cm sec?1, and decreases only slowly below about ?0·5°C. Soils known to be susceptible to frost heave are shown to have significant hydraulic conductivities well below 0°C.  相似文献

Surface dissolution features on diamonds and Fourier Transform Infra Red spectroscopy (FTIR) of phenocrystal and xenocrystal olivines from kimberlites contain a record of magmatic fluid in kimberlite magmas. We investigated composition and behavior of kimberlitic fluid and the effect of volatiles on the eruption style and geology of kimberlites using microdiamonds and olivine concentrates from six kimberlite pipes with different lithologies and the character of diamond resorption (Ekati Diamond Mine, Northwest Territories, Canada). The study showed a clear correlation between the resorption style of diamond population of the kimberlites and the type of infrared (IR) spectra of their olivines. Four kimberlites have high quality diamonds with smooth regular surface features and high H2O content of the olivines indicating the presence of H2O-rich fluid during the emplacement. Fast ascent rates of fluid-rich magma can explain explosive eruption and filling the pipes with volcaniclastic kimberlite facies. Conversely, Grizzly and Leslie kimberlites have diamonds with complex sharp features diminishing diamond quality and indicating loss of the fluid. The slower ascent rates and less explosive eruption of the fluid-free magmas produced kimberlite pipes filled with magmatic facies kimberlite. Distinctive peaks in olivine IR spectra at 3356 and 3327 cm? 1 were found to correlate with the presence of hydrous magmatic fluid. Character of diamond morphology suggests that during the whole ascent of all six kimberlites, the magmatic fluid when present had a high H2O:CO2 ratio.  相似文献

A large data base has recently accumulated on the concentrations of helium isotopes in diamonds mined from various regions. It was noted earlier (Ozima et al. (1985) [1]; Lal et al. (1989) [2]) that the frequency distribution of the4He concentrations is a fairly narrow one, whereas that of3He concentrations is a broad one with no pronounced peaks. The ratios 3He/4He, on the other hand show a broad maximum around 2 Ra (Ra equals atmospheric 3He/4He ratio, = 1.40 × 10−6) with a slow decrease over two orders of magnitude on either side. Does this imply that the diamonds sample a wide variety of helium reservoirs having a range of 3He/4He ratios but somehow attain similar4He concentrations? We propose that in a majority of the diamonds studied,4He is primarily due to implantation of radiogenic alpha particles from the host material after emplacement in the crust, usually kimberlite, and that the concentrations of4He in diamonds often get appreciably altered by this process. Thus the4He trapped in the diamond at the time of its crystallization is usually overwhelmed by the implanted helium and the measured 3He/4He ratios do not generally correspond to any “sources” in the mantle. However, the implanted4He resides in the outer 16 μm of the diamond, and the intrinsic4He and 3He/4He ratios in the diamond can be studied if its outer layers are removed.The wider implications of diamond being the “target” material for nuclear reaction products from the host material are discussed. Radiogenic3He produced in the host material is also implanted in the diamond, but this contribution is small on a gross basis. However, since the depth of implantation of3He is greater than that of4He, some of the very high 3He/4He ratios observed in diamonds could be due to the “implantation” of radiogenic3He. The radiogenic reactions in the host material can also contribute to appreciable21Ne in diamonds.  相似文献

Summary A portable magnetometer of the fluxgate type is described, which is capable of measuring in the field the direction and intensity of remanent magnetization of rock samples of 2 cm diameter with an accuracy of the order of 6° for intensities of 10–3 emu/cc or more. The measurement and calculation can be carried out in less than five minutes, and a precision of the order of 2° can be obtained if more readings are taken so that ten minutes are required for a complete measurement. The chief limitation to the precision of measurement was found to be inhomogeneity of magnetization of the specimens. The instrument has been used to estimate stability of natural remanent magnetization where A.C. cleaning apparatus is not available, and the method of doing so is briefly described.Now with English Electric Computers.  相似文献

The distribution of diamonds within individual kimberlite pipes is poorly documented in the public domain due to the proprietary nature of the data. The study of the diamond distribution within two pipes, Fox and Koala, from the EKATI Diamond Mine, NWT, Canada, in conjunction with detailed facies models has shown several distinct relationships of deposit type and grade distribution. In both pipes, the lithological facies represent grade units which can be distinguished from each other in terms of relative size and abundance of diamonds. A positive relationship between olivine grain size and abundance with diamond size and abundance is observed, indicating that sorting of fragmental kimberlites influences diamond distribution. Though surface geological processes do not control the diamond potential of the erupting magma, they can be responsible for concentrating diamonds into economically significant proportions. A good understanding of the eruption, transport and depositional processes responsible for the individual lithological units and the diamond distribution within them is important for successful resource estimation. This may lead to recognition of areas suitable for selective mining, making a marginal deposit economic.  相似文献

This paper reports stick-slip behaviors of Indian gabbro as studied using a new large-scale biaxial friction apparatus, built in the National Research Institute for Earth Science and Disaster Prevention (NIED), Tsukuba, Japan. The apparatus consists of the existing shaking table as the shear-loading device up to 3, 600 kN, the main frame for holding two large rectangular prismatic specimens with a sliding area of 0.75 m2 and for applying normal stresses σn up to 1.33 MPa, and a reaction force unit holding the stationary specimen to the ground. The shaking table can produce loading rates v up to 1.0 m/s, accelerations up to 9.4 m/s2, and displacements d up to 0.44 m, using four servocontrolled actuators. We report results from eight preliminary experiments conducted with room humidity on the same gabbro specimens at v = 0.1-100 mm/s and σn = 0.66-1.33 MPa, and with d of about 0.39 m. The peak and steady-state friction coefficients were about 0.8 and 0.6, respectively, consistent with the Byerlee friction. The axial force drop or shear stress drop during an abrupt slip is linearly proportional to the amount of displacement, and the slope of this relationship determines the stiffness of the apparatus as 1.15×108 N/m or 153 MPa/m for the specimens we used. This low stiffness makes fault motion very unstable and the overshooting of shear stress to a negative value was recognized in some violent stick-slip events. An abrupt slip occurred in a constant rise time of 16-18 ms despite wide variation of the stress drop, and an average velocity during an abrupt slip is linearly proportional to the stress drop. The use of a large-scale shaking table has a great potential in increasing the slip rate and total displacement in biaxial friction experiments with large specimens.  相似文献

Inclusions of ferropericlase and former (Mg,Fe)(Si,Al)O3 perovskite in diamonds from Kankan, Guinea believed to originate in the lower mantle were studied using Mössbauer spectroscopy to determine Fe3+/ΣFe. Fe3+ concentration in the (Mg,Fe)(Si,Al)O3 inclusion is consistent with empirical relations relating Fe3+/ΣFe to Al concentration, supporting the inference that it crystallised in the perovskite structure at lower mantle conditions. In ferropericlase there is a nearly linear variation of trivalent cation abundance with monovalent cation abundance, suggesting a substitution of the form Na0.5M0.53+O (M=Fe3+, Cr3+, Al3+). Excess positive charge is likely balanced by cation vacancies, where their abundance is observed to increase with increasing iron concentration, consistent with high-pressure experiments. The abundance of cation vacancies is related to oxygen fugacity, where ferropericlase inclusions from Kankan and São Luiz (Brazil) are inferred to have formed at conditions more oxidising than Fe-(Mg,Fe)O equilibrium, but more reducing than Re-ReO2 equilibrium. Fe2+/Mg partition coefficients between (Mg,Fe)(Si,Al)O3 and ferropericlase were calculated for inclusions co-existing in the same diamond using Mössbauer data and empirical relations based on high-pressure experimental work. Most values are consistent with high-pressure experiments, suggesting that these inclusions equilibrated at lower mantle conditions. The measured ferropericlase Fe3+ concentrations are consistent with diamond formation in a region of redox gradients, possibly arising from the subduction of oxidised material into reduced lower mantle. Reduction of carbonate to form ferropericlase and diamond is consistent with a slight shift of Kankan δ13C values to isotopically heavy compositions compared to the worldwide dataset, and could supply the oxygen necessary to satisfy the high Fe3+ concentration in (Mg,Fe)(Si,Al)O3 perovskite, as well as account for the high proportion of ferropericlase in the lower mantle paragenesis. The heterogeneity of lower mantle diamond sources indicates that the composition of lower mantle diamonds do not necessarily reflect those of the bulk mantle.  相似文献

Abstract

The electrical conductivity measurement is the most convenient way for water salinity determination. Two portable low-cost conductivity meters are described. The first, a digital one using a bridge circuit, allows the measurement up to 9,999 μΩ?1 cm?1. The second apparatus is a direct reading conductivity meter, using a direct current for measuring; in 5 ranges, it allows the measurement up to 6,000 μΩ?1 cm?1. A correction of temperature influence is provided in both designs by manual adjustment.  相似文献

Abstract In northern Kazakhstan the WNW striking Kokchetav megamélange includes different crustal sequences with high‐pressure/ultrahigh‐pressure (HP/UHP) remnants of their 540–520 Ma subduction metamorphism. Two domains separated by the north‐east trending Chaglinka fault are distinguished. The western domain exhibits NE–SW structures within a single Kumdy–Kol megaunit of diamond‐bearing UHP metasediments and high‐temperature (HT) eclogites. The eastern domain consists of the composite Kulet megaunit with the Kulet UHP unit (coesite‐bearing metasediments, whiteschists and eclogites), the Enbek–Berlyk medium‐pressure (MP) unit (kyanite‐bearing, high‐alumina rocks with interleaved coronitic metagabbro), and ortho‐ and paragneisses with eclogites and amphibolites included. All eclogites in the eastern domain are of the relatively low temperature (LT) type. Sillimanite is common and appears after kyanite in the sheared MP unit. A regional and moderately ESE plunging linear fabric coincides with the fold‐axis of the foliation poles from the eastern domain. Whether this also reflects a regional top to the WNW transport, as inferred from the dextral strike‐slip on steeply to SSW dipping foliation, needs further study. Top to the WNW shear is shown by weakly inclined low pressure (LP) cordierite rocks that flank the eastern domain in the south. Some new 39Ar/40Ar mica cooling ages (519, 521 Ma) from the Kulet UHP micaschists reflect the same early stage evolutionary event as was previously shown for the Kumdy–Kol UHP rocks (515, 517 Ma) in the west. Similar 39Ar/40Ar ages (500, 517 Ma) are recorded by micas and amphibole that outline a top to NNW shear fabric in the non‐subducted Proterozoic basement, north of the megamélange. A 447 Ma overprint of the MP sequences is considered to reflect the strike‐slip deformation with sillimanite and the reworking of an early kyanite‐bearing tectonite. Biotites from the LP cordierite rocks yielded approximately 400 Ma 39Ar/40Ar ages. In case they reflect the WNW shear deformation, the latter is considered to be associated with a regional granite magmatism (420–460 Ma) extending south of the eastern domain. In their present different structural domains the Kulet and Kumdy–Kol UHP units display a similar early stage event. Subsequent LP deformation, which is likely to be associated with regional granite magmatism (420–460 Ma), is assumed to have obliterated any common or uniform early exhumation structure for the whole megamélange. The north‐east structured Kumdy–Kol domain is assumed to have preserved the most information about the early stage exhumation. This domain is at an angle to the regional WNW strike of the megamélange.  相似文献

A dacitic lava flow with a volume of about 24 km3 is described. This flow is the largest of three of this type which were erupted in the youngest phase of volcanism in one part of the Andes of northern Chile. The majority of volcanoes erupted during this phase are more andesitic in composition and are made up of small flows and pyroclastic materials.  相似文献

The present study was conducted to investigate the tolerance of Spartina densiflora to phenanthrene, and to test its ability in phenanthrene dissipation. A glasshouse experiment was designed to investigate the effect of phenanthrene from 0 to 1000 mg kg−1 on growth and photosynthetic apparatus of S. densiflora by measuring chlorophyll fluorescence parameters, gas exchange and photosynthetic pigments. We also performed chemical analysis of plant samples, and determined the concentration of phenanthrene remaining in soil. S. densiflora survived to concentrations as high as 1000 mg kg−1 phenanthrene in soil; in fact, there was no significant difference in RGR among the treatments after 30 days. Otherwise, phenanthrene affected photosynthetic apparatus at 100 and 1000 mg kg−1; thus, the lower ΦPSII could be explained by the declined photosynthetic pigment concentrations. Soil extraction indicated a more marked rate of phenanthrene disappearance in the soil in the presence of S. densiflora.  相似文献

Pressure behavior of ZnTe at room temperature was studied using an X-ray energy dispersive method on a DIA type cubic anvil apparatus (SAM-85) at NSLS-X17B1. By using powdered polyethylene, the sample and NaCl for a pressure scale were held under quasihydrostatic conditions, which were confirmed by X-ray diffraction method. Two high-pressure phase transitions were confirmed using X-ray powder diffraction simultaneously with electrical resistance measurements. The phase transition pressures under quasihydrostatic conditions were determined to be 9.6 GPa, at which the resistance increased, and 12.0 GPa, which was the midpoint of a large resistance decrease. Errors in the pressure determinations were estimated to be less than 0.2 GPa. These pressure values may depend on grain size and anisotropic stress effects on the calibrant. From X-ray observation of ZnTe, the bulk modulus of the zinc blende structure was calculated to beK 0=51(3) GPa andK 0 =3.6(0.8), and the first transition at 9.6 GPa was found to have about 9% volume change. It was consistent with an anomaly in the pressure generating curves.  相似文献

A detailed stratigraphic analysis of the Avellino plinian deposit of the Somma-Vesuvius volcano shows a complicated eruptive sequence controlled by a combination of magmatic and hydromagmatic processes. The role of external water on the eruptive dynamics was most relevant in the very early phase of the eruption when the groundwater explosively interacted with a rising, gas-exolving magma body creating the first conduit. This phase generated pyroclastic surge and phreatoplinian deposits followed by a rapidly increasing discharge of a gas-rich, pure magmatic phase which erupted as the most violent plinian episode. This continuing plinian phase tapped the magma chamber, generating about 2.9 km3 of reverse-graded fallout pumice, more differentiated at the base and more primitive at the top (white and gray pumice). A giant, plinian column, rapidly grew up reaching a maximum height of 36 km.The progressive magma evacuation at a maximum discharge rate of 108 kg/s that accompanied a decrease of magmatic volatile content in the lower primitive magma allowed external water to enter the magma chamber, resulting in a drastic change in the eruptive style and deposit type. Early wet hydromagmatic events were followed by dry ones and only a few, subordinated magmatic phases. A thick, impressive sequence of pyroclastic surge bedsets of over 430 km2 in area with a total volume of about 1 km3 is the visible result of this hydromagmatic phase.  相似文献

The concentration and isotopic composition of nitrogen, measured in large diamonds (gram size) from the Mbuji Mayi kimberlite district (Zaïre) show a large range of variation (100<N<2100 ppm, ?11.2<δ15N< +6.0). The15N-depleted nitrogen is associated with the higher nitrogen concentrations. The large diamonds are individually rather homogeneous in13C (range ofδ13C < 0.9‰) while variations occur within small octahedral diamonds from the same district (range up to 5.8‰). The total range ofδ13C variation is about the same for the large diamonds (?10.5 <δ13C < ?5.5), the small octahedral diamonds (?10 <δ13C < ?4.6), and the carbonates from local kimberlites (?11.8 < δ13C < ?5.5). The diamond carbon isotopic data could indicate a complex story of crystallization within a deep-seated system fractionating its carbon isotopes.The nitrogen results indicate that nitrogen in diamonds is, on the average, markedly depleted in15N (weighted average ?5.15‰) relative to atmosphere, sediments and upper mantle.  相似文献

Uniaxial compressive stress-strain curves have been measured on a suite of 26 commercial grades of tungsten carbide cermets and three maraging steels of interest for use in high-pressure apparatus. Tests were conducted on cylindrical specimens with a length to diameter ratio of two. Load was applied to the specimens by tungsten carbide anvils padded by extrudable lead disks. Interference fit binding rings of maraging steel were pressed on to the ends of the specimens to inhibit premature corner fractures. Bonded resistance strain gages were used to measure both axial and tangential strains. Deformation was exremely uniform in the central, gauged portion of the specimens. Tests were conducted at a constant engineering strain rate of 1×10–5s–1. The composition of the specimens was principally WC/Co with minor amounts of other carbides in some cases. The Co weight fraction ranged from 2 to 15%. Observed compressive strengths ranged from about 4 to just above 8 GPa. Axial strain amplitude at failure varied from 1.5% to 9%. Representative stress-strain curves and a ranking of the grades in terms of yield strength and strain at failure are presented. A power law strain hardening relation and the Ramberg-Osgood stress-strain equation were fit to the data. Fits were very good for both functions to axial strain amplitudes of about 2%. The failure of these established functions is accompanied by an abrupt change in the trend of volumetric strain consistent with the onset of substantial microcrack volume.  相似文献

In the article, the results of field observations of the chemical composition of the small river basin waters obtained during warm periods in 2011–2012 are presented. Seven basic geographical types of water were investigated, namely, cyclonic rainfall, rainstorm, throughfall, subsurface soil flow, low water flow (specific discharges of waters do not exceed 2.5 L/s km2), low floods (peak specific discharges are from 2.5 to 16 L/s km2) and medium floods (peak specific discharges are from 16 to about 100 L/s km2). A result of the interaction between the rain water and landscape constituents is that all examined natural waters differ to the maximum extent in the anionic composition. A chemical type of stream waters is sufficiently stable; it is formed predominantly within the soil-ground cover and does not change with increase in flow rate.  相似文献

The crystallization ages of a suite of Apollo 17 basalts from four different stations have been measured using the39Ar-40Ar stepwise heating technique. The rocks analyzed include all principal petrographic types found at Apollo 17 landing site. A correlation between the ages and the petrographic type exists; plagioclase-poikilitic ilmenite basalts are youngest and olivine porphyritic ilmenite basalts are the oldest. The duration of volcanism in Mare Serenitatis is about 200 m.y., the same as observed for Mare Imbrium, and less than observed for Mare Tranquillitatis, 400 m.y. A relationship between duration of volcanism and gravity anomalies is noted. The cosmic ray exposure ages (in m.y.) for various locations range as: station 4, 58–315; station 5, 85–440; station 6, 110; station 8, 90–160.  相似文献
