Different magneto-rotational supernovae     

G. S. Bisnovatyi-Kogan  S. G. Moiseenko  N. V. Ardelyan 《Astronomy Reports》2008,52(12):997-1008

We present the results of two-dimensional calculations of a magneto-rotational (MR) supernova explosion with a collapsing core for various core masses, rotational angular momenta, and magnetic-field configurations. It is shown that the MR mechanism produces an explosion energy that corresponds to observed values. The form of the explosion depends substantially on the initial configuration of the magnetic field. MR instability develops during the evolution of the magnetic field in an MR supernova explosion, resulting in an exponential increase of all components of the magnetic field, thereby substantially decreasing the time scale of the MR explosion. The energy of the supernova increases with the core’s mass and initial rotational energy.  相似文献   

Scheme of mineral facies of metamorphic rocks     

S. A. Bushmin  V. A. Glebovitsky 《Geology of Ore Deposits》2008,50(8):659-669

The proposed PT grid of mineral facies of metamorphic rocks, which retains the commonly adopted nomenclature (greenschist, epidote-amphibolite, amphibolite, granulite, glaucophane-schist, and eclogite facies), is based on original calculations and the published calculated and experimental data on mineral equilibria. To validate the facies and subfacies PT boundaries, the mineral equilibria in metapelitic and metabasic rocks have been used.  相似文献   

Rare earth elements in tourmaline and chlorite from tin-bearing assemblages: Factors controlling fractionation of REE in hydrothermal systems     

N. S. Bortnikov  N. V. Gorelikova  P. G. Korostelev  V. G. Gonevchuk 《Geology of Ore Deposits》2008,50(6):445-461

The REE distribution in minerals from tin-bearing ore-magmatic systems of the Russian Far East, including the Komsomolsk, Khingan, and Badzhal districts in the Amur region and the Kavalerovo, Lesozavodsk, Voznesenka, Furmanovo, and other districts in Primorsky krai, has been studied. The main attention was focused on tourmaline and chlorite; in addition, associated biotite, feldspar, apatite, fluorite, and carbonates were examined. The major factors affecting the REE distribution in the studied minerals are the temperature, Eh, and pH of the mineral-forming medium; crystal chemistry; partition coefficients of REE between fluid and minerals; and complexation that disturbs the coherent behavior of REE. Fluid evolution at different stages is characterized.  相似文献   

The Seyfert 1 galaxy Ark 120. Spectral variability in 1992–2005     

V. T. Doroshenko  S. G. Sergeev  V. I. Pronik 《Astronomy Reports》2008,52(6):442-462

We have studied the variability of the Hβ line and the adjacent continuum in the spectrum of the Seyfert galaxy Ark 120, based on spectral observations of the galaxy’s nucleus obtained in the Crimea in 1992–2005, supplemented by published data for 1988–1996. Irregular variability on various timescales (years to days) can be accompanied by periodic brightness variations in both the continuum and the Hβ line, with a period of P ～ 430 days and an amplitude of Δm ～ 0.2 ^m in the continuum, which were traced for more than 13 cycles. In total, in 1988–2005, the flux variations in the line lag those in the continuum by 55 ± 9 days if calculated from the peak of the cross correlation function, or by 72 ± 7 days, if calculated from the centroid of the CCF. The delay is correlated with the continuum brightness, increasing when the continuum flux increases. The Hβ line profiles indicate both a high degree of diversity and the presence of features that recur after various extended time intervals. Analysis of the evolution of the differences between each individual normalized line profile and the mean normalized profile indicates systematic motion of excesses relative to the average profile from negative to positive radial velocities. In contrast, parts of the Hβ line with low radiation relative to the mean normalized profile evolve in the opposite direction (from the red to the blue Hβ wing). This pattern is also typical for the rotating broad-line region, if this region has the form of a disk. The rotation period exceeds 9000–10000 days, or 25–27 years. The size of the broad-line region calculated form this period corresponds to a reverberation time of no fewer than 30 days, consistent with the results of cross-correlation analysis.  相似文献   

Surface complexation modeling of Cu(II) adsorption on mixtures of hydrous ferric oxide and kaolinite     

Tracy J Lund  Carla M Koretsky  Christopher J Landry  Melinda S Schaller  Soumya Das 《Geochemical transactions》2008,9(1):9

Background  

The application of surface complexation models (SCMs) to natural sediments and soils is hindered by a lack of consistent models and data for large suites of metals and minerals of interest. Furthermore, the surface complexation approach has mostly been developed and tested for single solid systems. Few studies have extended the SCM approach to systems containing multiple solids.  相似文献   

Comparison of dissolved and particulate arsenic distributions in shallow aquifers of Chakdaha, India, and Araihazar, Bangladesh     

Jerome Métral  Laurent Charlet  Sara Bureau  Sukumar Basu Mallik  Sudipta Chakraborty  Kazi M Ahmed  MW Rahman  Zhongqi Cheng  Alexander van Geen 《Geochemical transactions》2008,9(1):1

Background  

The origin of the spatial variability of dissolved As concentrations in shallow aquifers of the Bengal Basin remains poorly understood. To address this, we compare here transects of simultaneously-collected groundwater and aquifer solids perpendicular to the banks of the Hooghly River in Chakdaha, India, and the Old Brahmaputra River in Araihazar, Bangladesh.  相似文献   

Crystal chemistry of selenates with mineral-like structures: V. Crystal structures of (H3O)2[(UO2)(SeO4)2(H2O)](H2O)2 and (H3O)2[(UO2)(SeO4)2(H2O)](H2O), new compounds with rhomboclase and goldichite topology     

S. V. Krivovichev 《Geology of Ore Deposits》2008,50(8):789-794

The crystal structures of two new compounds (H₃O)₂[(UO₂)(SeO₄)₂(H₂O)](H₂O)₂ (1, orthorhombic, Pnma, a = 14.0328(18), b = 11.6412(13), c = 8.2146(13) Å, V = 134.9(3) ų) and (H₃O)₂[(UO₂)(SeO₄)₂(H₂O)](H₂O) (2, monoclinic, P2₁/c, a = 7.8670(12), b = 7.5357(7), c = 21.386(3) Å, β = 101.484(12)°, V = 1242.5(3) ų) have been solved by direct methods and refined to R ₁ = 0.076 and 0.080, respectively. The structures of both compounds contain sheet complexes [(UO₂)(SeO₄)₂]^2? formed by cornershared [(UO₂)O₄(H₂O)] bipyramids and SeO₄ tetrahedrons. The sheets are parallel to the (100) plane in structure 1 and to (?102) in structure 2. The [(UO₂)(SeO₄)₂(H₂O)]^2? layers are linked by hydrogen bonds via interlayer groups H₂O and H₃O⁺. The sheet topologies in structures 1 and 2 are different and correspond to the topologies of octahedral and tetrahedral complexes in rhomboclase (H₂O₂)⁺[Fe(SO₄)₂(H₂O)₂] and goldichite K[Fe(SO₄)₂(H₂O)₂](H₂O)₂, respectively.  相似文献   

Geochemical types of Volkhovites and possible diamond resource potential of areas occupied by Holocene fluidisites     

G. T. Skublov  Yu. B. Marin  S. G. Skublov  Yu. N. Tarasenko 《Geology of Ore Deposits》2008,50(7):535-550

Volkhovites—tektite-like glasses—have been detected in the Holocene glacial drift along the right bank of the Volkhov River. A cryptomagmatic model of their formation and pre-Holocene age of volkhovite melts, cinder, and frothed glasses has been suggested (Skublov et al., 2007). Four geochemical types of volkhovites are distinguished: (1) manganous (Mn, Fe, Cr, V, Si, Nb, Pb, H), (2) magnesian (Mg, Al, Ti, F, B), (3) potassic (K, Rb, Cs), and (4) calcic (Ca, REEs, Ba, U, Th, Ta, Hf, Y, Sc, Cl). In light of the geochemical data, volkhovites are regarded as natural silicate glasses of kimberlite-carbonatite composition. Their types are called kimberlitic (Mn type), kimberlitic-carbonatitic (Mg type), lamproitic-carbonatitic (K type), and carbonatitic (Ca type). Volkhovites are suggested to be indicators of undiscovered diamond mineralization of kimberlite or carbonatite (Chagatai) types.  相似文献   

Rotational and magnetic corrections to the g-mode frequencies in a one-dimensional MHD model     

M. S. Dvornikov  T. I. Rashba  V. B. Semikoz 《Astronomy Reports》2008,52(4):335-342

The central magnetic field and rotation of the solar radiative zone are responsible for corrections to the g-mode frequencies. Magnetogravitational spectra are calculated analytically in a simple one-dimensional MHD model that goes beyond the WKB approximation and avoid any cusp resonances that trap the wave within the radiative zone in the presence of a weak magnetic background. The calculations are compared with spacecraft observations of the 1% frequency shifts for candidate g-modes found in the SOHO GOLF experiment. The magnetic correction is the main contribution for a strong magnetic field satisfying the approximation used. It is shown that a constant magnetic field of 700 kG in the radiative zone provides the required frequency shift for the n = ?10 g-mode. The rotational correction, which is due to the Coriolis force in the one-dimensional model used, is much less than a percent (α_Ω ≤ 0.003).  相似文献   

Numerical simulation of a stratigraphic model     

Véronique Gervais  Roland Masson 《Computational Geosciences》2008,12(2):163-179

A multi-lithology diffusive stratigraphic model is considered, which simulates at large scales in space and time the infill of sedimentary basins governed by the interaction between tectonics displacements, eustatic variations, sediment supply, and sediment transport laws. The model accounts for the mass conservation of each sediment lithology resulting in a mixed parabolic, hyperbolic system of partial differential equations (PDEs) for the lithology concentrations and the sediment thickness. It also takes into account a limit on the rock alteration velocity modeled as a unilaterality constraint. To obtain a robust, fast, and accurate simulation, fully and semi-implicit finite volume discre tization schemes are derived for which the existence of stable solutions is proved. Then, the set of nonlinear equations is solved using a Newton algorithm adapted to the unilaterality constraint, and preconditioning strategies are defined for the solution of the linear system at each Newton iteration. They are based on an algebraic approximate decoupling of the sediment thickness and the concentration variables as well as on a proper preconditioning of each variable. These algorithms are studied and compared in terms of robustness, scalability, and efficiency on two real basin test cases.  相似文献
