Thermodynamics of Co3O4: a possible electron spin unpairing transition in Co3+     

H.St. C. O'Neill 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1985,12(3):149-154

The free energy of the reaction: $$Co_3 O_4 \rightleftarrows 3C_O O + \tfrac{1}{2}O_2$$ has been studied between 890 and 1,240 K using an e.m.f. technique. There is a phase transition in Co₃O₄ at 1,120±20 K which is accompanied by a large change in entropy (～47 JK^?1 mol^?1 of Co₃O₄), and a rapid increase in unit cell volume and in electical conductivity. This is interpreted to be due to a partial change in electronic spin states in Co^{3 +} from the spin-paired (low spin) configuration observed at room temperature to the spin-unpaired (high spin) state. The transition is probably not first order.  相似文献   

Geologische Vorgänge in den Alpen ab Obereozän im Spiegel vor allem der deutschen Molasse     

Prof. Dr. Kurt Lemcke 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1984,73(1):371-397

Zusammenfassung Die vorquartäre Geschichte des Molassebeckens nördlich der Alpen läßt sich in 3 Großabschnitte unterteilen, in deren Ablauf sich umrißhaft die jeweils zugehörigen Entwicklungsstadien des aufsteigenden Gebirges widerspiegeln, die bisweilen umgekehrt auch von Ereignissen im Vorland beeinflußt werden. Der 1. Abschnitt (Obereozän bis Aquitan/ Ober-Eger) ist von der in den Westalpen beginnenden Hebung sowie von Bewegungen der savischen Dislokationsphase geprägt, in besonderem Maße ferner an der Rupel/ChattGrenze von der größten Meeresspiegelsenkung seit dem Kambrium. Im 2. Abschnitt (Burdigal/Eggenburg bis Unterpannon) verlagert sich die Hebungsaktivität zu den Ostalpen, womit im Vorland die große, E-W gerichtete Flußschüttung der Oberen Süßwassermolasse ausgelöst wird. In ihr verursacht die gewaltige Erderschütterung des Riesmeteoriten-Einschlags im höheren Baden vermutlich die Flußverlegung der Enns, eines ihrer beiden Hauptzubringer, zum Grazer Becken und damit eine sich u. a. im Schwermineralbestand (als A-Grenze) abzeichnende Änderung der Materialzufuhr aus dem Gebirge. Im 3. Abschnitt (Unterpannon bis Pliozän) geht infolge weiteren Aufsteigens der Alpen samt Vorland bei gleichzeitiger Verlagerung des Hebungszentrums wieder zur Westschweiz die bisherige Akkumulation in Denudation über, die von dem sich nun von Niederösterreich aus ins Molassebecken hineinfressenden Donausystem besorgt wird.Die während des 2. Großabschnitts von der Auflast der vorrückenden kalkalpinen Dekken aus ihrem Ablagerungsraum herausgequetschte ältere Molasse ist zu den alpenparallelen Mulden des gefalteten Bereichs zusammengeschoben, mit einer wohl erst im 3. Abschnitt entstandenen Achsendepression zwischen Iller und Mangfall. In diesen Zeitraum vor allem fällt auch die Verformung der jüngeren ungefalteten Molasse zu einer alpenparallelen Großmulde, deren Achse nach SW und E aushebt.

The pre-Quaternary history of the Molasse basin north of the Alps can be subdivided into three major phases, in the course of which the respective associated evolutional stages of the rising mountains are reflected in outline. On the other hand, these stages are occasionally also influenced by events in the foreland. The first phase (Upper Eocene to Aquitanian/Upper Egerian) ist characterized by the uplifting beginning in the Western Alps and movements of the Savic dislocation phase, and in particular also at the Rupelian/Chattian boundary by the greatest eustatic lowering of the sea level since the Cambrian period. During the second phase (Burdigalian/Eggenburgian to Lower Pannonian) the uplifting shifts to the Eastern Alps, bringing about in the foreland the large E-W directed fluvial accretion of the Upper Fresh-water-Molasse. During its progress the enormous earth-tremor of the Ries meteoric impact in the upper Badenian presumably leads to the diversion of the Enns river, being one of the two main tributaries, to the Graz basin, resulting in a change in the material supply from the mountains, which is reflected in the heavy mineral content (designated as A-boundary). In the third phase (Lower Pannonian to Pliocene) the previous accumulation, as a result of the continuing uplifting of the Alps and the foreland with simultaneous shifting of the uplift centre back to Western Switzerland, turns to denudation which is effected by the Danube system extending from Lower Austria into the Molasse basin.The older Molasse squeezed out of its deposition area by the overburden of the advancing Austroalpine nappes has been compressed to the throughs of the folded zone along the Alps, with an axis depression between the rivers Iller and Mangfall, which has presumably not developed until the third phase. Above all, during this period the deformation of the younger unfolded Molasse to a large trough paralleling the Alps also took place; its axis rises to the SW and E.

Résumé L'histoire préquaternaire du bassin molassique au nord des Alpes peut se diviser en trois périodes principales dont le déroulement reflète à grands traits les phases de développement corrélatives de la chaîne en voie de soulèvement. D'autre part, ces phases de développement sont de temps en temps influencées par des événements intervenus dans le bassin. La première période (Eocène supérieur à Aquitanien/Egerien supérieur) est marquée par le soulèvement commençant dans les Alpes occidentales, ainsi que par des mouvements de la phase de dislocation savique et, en particulier à la limite du Rupélien/Chattien, par le plus grand abaissement eustatique du niveau de la mer depuis le Cambrien. Pendant la seconde période (Burdigalien/Eggenburgien à Pannonien inférieur) l'activité de soulèvement se déplace vers les Alpes orientales, provoquant dans le bassin préalpin la grande accrétion fluviale de la Süßwassermolasse (Molasse d'eau douce) supérieure dirigée de l'est vers l'ouest. Le violent ébranlement terrestre produit dans celle-ci par l'impact de la météorite dans le Ries pendant le Badénien supérieur mène probablement le détournement de l'Enns, l'un des deux fleuves tributaires principaux, vers le bassin de Graz, donnant lieu à un changement dans le transport de matériaux venant des montagnes, ce qui se reflète dans la teneur en minerais lourds (dénommé « limite A »). Pendant la troisième période (Pannonien inférieur à Pliocène), l'accumulation antérieure, par suite du soulèvement continu des Alpes et du bassin préalpin, accompagné de la retraite du centre du soulèvement vers la Suisse occidentale, tourne à la dénudation qui est effectuée par le système danubien s'étendant dès lors de la Basse-Autriche au bassin molassique.La Molasse plus ancienne expulsée pendant la seconde période principale de son milieu de sedimentation par la pression des nappes austroalpines susjacentes en progression a été comprimée en auges de la zone pliée le long des Alpes, avec un abaissement axial entre l'Iller et le Mangfall, qui ne s'est probablement formé que dans la troisième période. Dans cette période surtout intervient la déformation de la Molasse plus récente non plissée qui prend la forme d'une grande auge parallèle aux Alpes, dont l'axe s'élève vers le sud-ouest et l'est.

Results of a semi-implicit two-step method for the simulation of markedly nonlinear flow in coastal seas   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Kurt C. Duwe  Regina R. Hewer  Jan O. Backhaus 《Continental Shelf Research》1982,2(4):255-274

Results of a numerical method for the simulation of nonlinear flow in coastal seas are presented. The method is based on a neutral semi-implicit scheme which is modified into a stability-enhancing two-step algorithm. By means of this method the simulation of highly nonlinear flow patterns is possible in a stable and economic way. Three examples of models of different North Sea coastal regions are discussed under certain aspects to demonstrate the reliability of the method.  相似文献   

Structure of the upper mantle in the Northeastern Atlantic close to the azores-gibraltar ridge from surface-wave and body-wave observations     

F. Marillier  St. Mueller 《Tectonophysics》1982,90(1-2)

Phase velocities of teleseismic Rayleigh waves have been measured in the central North Atlantic on both sides of the Azores-Gibraltar Ridge (AGR) by means of a specially designed long-period station network. The dispersion data obtained were regionalized and then subjected to a “hedgehog” inversion, which gives a set of upper mantle models compatible with the observational data within specified error bounds.Reasonable model solutions were selected by using regional body-wave observations, such as P_n- and S_n-wave velocities determined from earthquakes along the AGR. The S_(itn) velocities measured indicate that the shear-wave velocity in the mantle part of the lithosphere is much higher on the northern side of the AGR. Strongly negative P-wave residuals in this area indicate faster seismic propagation than implied by the Jeffreys-Bullen travel-time tables, while propagation is much slower in the Gulf of Cadiz area. Furthermore the residuals show a clear difference for paths through oceanic and continental domains and suggest that the transition between these two domains extends much further into the ocean on the southern side of the AGR than on the northern side.The proposed model for the structure of the upper mantle in that region shows that there exists a pronounced velocity contrast across the AGR. Thickening of the lithospheric plate with increasing plate age is indicated to the south of the ridge. The greatest thickness is reached close to the continental margin within a zone about 500 km wide, whose velocity close to the Canary Islands and Madeira is significantly lower, probably due to the well-known volcanic activity there. These observations together with the travel time residuals reveal that this zone seems to be of a transitional nature somewhere between a continental and oceanic structure.  相似文献   

Lithification of gas-rich chondrite regolith breccias by grain boundary and localized shock melting     

A. Bischoff  A.E. Rubin  K. Keil  D. Stöffler 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1983

We studied the fine-grained matrices (< 150 μm) of 14 gas-rich ordinary chondrite regolith breccias in an attempt to decipher the nature of the lithification process that converted loose regolith material into consolidated breccias. We find that there is a continuous gradation in matrix textures from nearly completely clastic (class A) to highly cemented (class C) breccias in which the remaining clasts are completely surrounded by interstitial, shock-melted material. We conclude that this interstitial material formed by shock melting in the porous regolith. In general, the abundances of solar-wind-implanted ⁴He and ²⁰Ne are inversely correlated with the abundance of interstitial, shock-melted, feldspathic material. Chondrites with the highest abundance of interstitial, melted material (class C) experienced the highest shock pressures and temperatures and suffered the most extensive degassing. It is this interstitial, feldspathic melt that lithifies and cements the breccias together; those breccias with very little interstitial melt (class A) are the most porous and least consolidated.  相似文献   

Crustal structure beneath Spain from deep seismic sounding experiments     

E. Banda  A. Udias  St. Mueller  J. Mezcua  M. Boloix  J. Gallart  A. Aparicio 《Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors》1983,31(4):277-280

Major tectonic units of Spain have been investigated by deep seismic sounding experiments since 1974 to determine crustal structures and to delineate their differences. These areas are the central part of the Hercynian Meseta, and the Alpine chains: the Betic Cordillera in the south, including the Balearic promontory and the Alboran Sea, and the Pyrenees in the north.The main features of the crust and the upper mantle along a NNE-SSW cross-section from the Pyrenees to the Alboran Sea are described.The crust under the Meseta is typical of Hercynian areas found elsewhere in Europe, with an average thickness of 31 km, whereas the two Alpine regions are characterized by very large lateral inhomogeneities, such as rapid thickening of the crust to 50 and 40 km under the Pyrenees and the Betics, respectively. The deep-reaching E-W-trending North Pyrenean fault has a throw of 10–15 km at the base of the crust. A P_n velocity of 8.1 km s^?1 is found under the entire Iberian Peninsula.In the Alboran Sea, strongly varying thicknesses of sediments, shallow variable depths to the Moho (～ 13 km under the Alboran ridge), and strong variations of P_n velocity between 7.5 and 8.2 km s^?1 have been found.  相似文献   

Hydraulic properties of the crystalline basement   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：1  

Ingrid Stober  Kurt Bucher 《Hydrogeology Journal》2007,15(2):213-224

Hydraulic tests in boreholes, up to 4.5 km deep, drilled into continental crystalline basement revealed hydraulic conductivity (K) values that range over nine log-units from 10⁻¹³−10⁻⁴ m s⁻¹. However, K values for fractured basement to about 1 km depth are typically restricted to the range from 10⁻⁸ to 10⁻⁶ m s⁻¹. New data from an extended injection test at the KTB research site (part of the Continental Deep Drilling Program in Germany) at 4 km depth provide K=5 10⁻⁸ m s⁻¹. The summarized K-data show a very strong dependence on lithology and on the local deformation history of a particular area. In highly fractured regions, granite tends to be more pervious than gneiss. The fracture porosity is generally saturated with Na–Cl or Ca–Na–Cl type waters with salinities ranging from <1 to >100 g L⁻¹. The basement permeability is well within the conditions for advective fluid and heat transport. Consequently, fluid pressure is hydrostatic and a Darcy flow mechanism is possible to a great depth. Topography-related hydraulic gradients in moderately conductive basement may result in characteristic advective flow rates of up to 100 L a⁻¹ m⁻² and lead to significant advective heat and solute transfer in the upper brittle crust.

Localized compaction in porous rocks is a recently recognized phenomenon that has been shown to reduce permeability dramatically. Consequently, the phenomenon is relevant to a variety of technologies involving fluid injection or withdrawal. This article summarizes current understanding of localized compaction and impediments to further progress. The article is based on discussions at a small workshop on localized compaction sponsored by the Office of Science, U. S. Department of Energy.  相似文献
