Abstract Kaidun is a breccia of disparate enstatite and carbonaceous chondrite clasts that continues to provide real surprises. Many Kaidun clasts have been intensely altered by aqueous fluids, as evidenced by the widespread occurrence of ferromagnesian phyllosilicates and by the presence of carbonate- and phyllo-silicate-filled veins. In this report, we describe an unusual CM lithology containing many mineralogical features not previously reported from any meteorite, including pyrrhotite, with exclusive needlelike morphologies and thick mantles of phyllosilicate, and complex aggregates of phyllosilicate, melanite garnet, crosscut by pentlandite veins. The latter features appear to be due in large part to extensive hydrothermal alteration at temperatures on the order of 450 °C, which is significantly higher than that attained during secondary processing from other known CM material.  相似文献   

UV Leo: The Binary with the Two Suns     

G. Djurašević  P. Rovithis  H. Rovithis-Livaniou  E. Fragoulopoulou 《Astrophysics and Space Science》2005,296(1-4):311-314

BV light curves of the eclipsing binary UV Leo obtained at the Kryonerion Astronomical Station of the National Observatory of Athens, Greece, are analyzed. The analysis is based on a Roche configuration with two spots on the secondary surface. The elements of the two components of the system are calculated and the spot characteristics are given.  相似文献   

Chronology and evolution of the northern Iceland Plateau     

J. CAMPSIE  M. H. RASMUSSEN  L. C. KOVACS  F. DITTMER  J. C. BAILEY  N. O. HANSEN  J. LAURSEN  L. JOHNSON 《Polar research》1990,8(2):237-243

New aeromagnetic data, K-Ar age determinations of dredged marine igneous rocks, as well as other geophysical evidence have shed light on the chronology, nature and evolution of the northern Iceland Plateau. Correspondence between seismic refraction profiles taken on the Jan Mayen Ridge and westward through Jan Mayen Island, suppressed aeromagnetic anomalies, earthquake surface wave studies, and ages of dredged igneous rocks suggest these strata may form an extended region of thickened crust, possibly of Caledonian age, extending westward toward the Kolbeinsey Ridge and northwest to the south wall of the Jan Mayen Fracture Zone.  相似文献   

Modeling X-Ray Photoionized Plasmas Produced at the Sandia Z-Facility

In experiments at the high-power Z-facility at Sandia National Laboratory in Albuquerque, New Mexico, we have been able to produce a low density photoionized laboratory plasma of Fe mixed with NaF. The conditions in the experiment allow a meaningful comparison with X-ray emission from astrophysical sources. The charge state distributions of Fe, Na and F are determined in this plasma using high resolution X-ray spectroscopy. Independent measurements of the density and radiation flux indicate unprecedented values for the ionization parameter ξ = 20–25 erg cm s⁻¹ under nearly steady-state conditions. First comparisons of the measured charge state distributions with X-ray photoionization models show reasonable agreement, although many questions remain.  相似文献

Microboudin structures of piemontite along the Sambagawa metamorphic belt, Japan: implications for lateral variation of differential stress during regional metamorphism     

T. Masuda  T. Shibutani  T. Ochiai  S. Akagi  H. Yamaguchi  Y. Kugimiya  N. Kimura  T. Miyake 《Journal of Metamorphic Geology》2004,22(3):199-205

Evidence is presented of a lateral variation in differential stress during metamorphism along a regional metamorphic belt on the basis of the proportion of microboudinaged piemontite grains (p) in a quartz matrix in metacherts. It is proposed that p is a practical indicator of relative differential stress. Analysis of 123 metacherts from the 800 km long Sambagawa metamorphic belt, Japan, reveals that p‐values range from < 0.01 to 0.7 in this region. Most samples from Wakayama in the mid‐belt area have p‐values of 0.4–0.6, whereas those from western Shikoku have p‐values of < 0.1. This difference cannot be explained by variations in metamorphic temperature, and is instead attributed to a regional, lateral variation in differential stress during metamorphism.  相似文献   

A Fabry-Pérot etalon as fourier tachometer     

I. E. Kozhevatov  E. H. Kulikova  N. P. Cheragin 《Solar physics》1996,168(2):251-258

A tachometer for measuring the displacements of the center of gravity of spectral line profiles is developed. The implementation of the device, basically a Fabry-Pérot etalon, is given. The spectral shifts are determined, using the frequency of a laser as reference.  相似文献   

Optical and X-Ray Observations of the Symbiotic System Ag Draconis During Quiescence and Outburst     

Roberto F. Viotti  Rosario González-Riestra  Takashi Iijima  Stefano Bernabei  Riccardo Claudi  Jochen Greiner  Michael Friedjung  Vito Francesco Polcaro  Corinne Rossi 《Astrophysics and Space Science》2005,296(1-4):435-439

We review the main characteristics of the symbiotic system AG Draconis, with special emphasis on its optical and X-ray variations. We also discuss the X-ray to visual energy distribution during quiescence and outburst and describe our spectroscopic and X-ray observations during the 2003 outburst. Based on X-ray observations collected with the XMM–Newton Observatory, on INES data from the IUE satellite, and on optical spectra collected with the Asiago–Cima Ekar, Bologna–Loiano and La Palma–Galileo Italian telescopes.  相似文献
