Determination of the potential in a synodic system     

Victor Szebehely  R. Broucke 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1981,24(1):23-26

Determination of the potential field in a fixed (inertial) system may be accomplished by the solution of a homogeneous linear partial differential equation when a family of orbits of a body moving in the field is given. This partial differential equation was presented and thoroughly analyzed earlier. The present paper discusses the same problem in a rotating system where the centrifugal and Coriolis effects render the pertinent partial differential equation in general non-homogeneous and non-linear. A linear, though non-homogeneous, partial differential equation for the determination of the synodic potential is obtained only in the special case of iso-energetic families of orbits.  相似文献   

Surfaces of zero velocity in the restricted problem of three bodies     

John Lundberg  Victor Szebehely  R. Steven Nerem  Byron Beal 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1985,36(2):191-205

Recent uses of computer graphics allow the representation of the three-dimensional surfaces of zero velocity, also known as Hill's or the Jacobian surfaces. The purpose of this paper is to show the actual surfaces rather than their projections which are available in the standard literature. The analytical properties of the surfaces are also available; therefore, this paper offers the pertinent references rather than the derivations.  相似文献

Limits of predictability of gravitational systems     

Victor Szebehely 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1987,43(1-4):139-145

The concept of finite predictability of gravitational many-body systems is related to the non-deterministic nature of celestial mechanics and of dynamics, in general. The basic, fundamental reasons for the uncertainty of predictions are as follows: (1) the initial conditions are known only approximately since they are obtained either from observations or from approximate computations; (2) the equations of motion given by a selected model describe the actual system only approximately; (3) the physical constants of the dynamical system have error limits; (4) the differential equations of motion are non-integrable and numerical integration methods must be used for solution, generating errors in the final result at every integration step.In addition to these reasons, mostly depending on our techniques, there are some more fundamental reasons depending on the nature of the dynamical system investigated. These are the appearance of regions of instability, non-integrability and chaotic motion.Details, effects and controls of these regions for finite predictability are discussed for various dynamical systems of importance in celestial mechanics with special emphasis on planetary systems.  相似文献   

Carlin-type Gold Prospects in Surigao del Norte, Mindanao Island, Philippines: Their Geology and Mineralization Potential     

Victor B. Maglambayan    Sj Montes    Katherine Hipol    Maireen Mamitag    Rikki Pamela Pineda    Raymond Rodolfo    Noel Oliveros  Antonio Sy 《Resource Geology》2005,55(3):145-154

Abstract. Three calcareous sedimentary rock-hosted Carlin type-like gold prospects were mapped in a mineral production sharing agreement area of Philex Gold Philippines Inc. in Taganaan municipality, Surigao del Norte province in Mindanao island in the Philippines. They occur along a 20–25 km long trend of known epigenetic gold and porphyry copper deposits that lie close to several splays of the Philippine Fault Zone. The gold district forms part of the Late Cretaceous Eastern Mindanao Range that hosts early Paleogene and late Pliocene to Quaternary intrusive rocks.
Gold is invisible in the jasperoid outcrops in Lascogon, Napo, and Danao prospects. The jasperoids occur in lenses of marls belonging to the Taganaan Marl Member that is associated to a turbiditic member of the Middle Miocene Mabuhay Formation. The marl lenses include gently dipping interbedded silty limestones and calcareous shales. The "invisible gold" mineralization in silicified calcareous rocks resembles Carlin-type deposits. Based on the mapped igneous and sedimentary rocks, a possible heat source for the gold mineralization is either or both of the two main phases of intrusion, Mabuhay An-desite or Alipao Andesite Porphyry. Forty-eight rock samples, fifteen stream sediment samples, and one soil sample were critical in delineating the general features of the potential Carlin-type prospects. The gold grades of jasperoids in the three prospects range from trace amounts to 20 g/t Au. Regional studies of gold and porphyry copper mineralization in the Surigao del Norte mineral district are important in delineating ore targets for drilling in the three prospects.  相似文献   

Types of Pyrophyllite Deposits in Foldbelts     

Irina Sinyakovskaya    Victor Zaykov  Ryuji Kitagawa 《Resource Geology》2005,55(4):405-418

Abstract. Pyrophyllite deposits can be divided into five types on the basis of geology and genesis. The first two types are associated with hydrothermally altered rocks in felsic and intermediate volcanogenic suites. They are characterized by their metasomatites and their subsequent mineralogic transformations under varying volcanic conditions. The third type includes deposits and occurrences of metamorphic-metasomatic genesis, which is caused by transformations of terrigenous-sedimentary interbeds in felsic volcanics under greenschist facies conditions. The fourth type is associated with low and mid-temperature stages of hydrothermal vein formation at the limits of volcanogenic and metamorphic strata. The fifth type comprises pyrophyllite occurrences in weathering crusts on metamorphic strata and metasomatite.
The formation conditions and distribution of raw pyrophyllite deposits were influenced by the geodynamic situations and geochemical conditions, such as character of tectonic dislocations, volcanism and chemical composition of hydrothermal solutions.  相似文献   

Multiple causes of Earth's earliest global glaciation   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Victor A. Melezhik 《地学学报》2006,18(2):130-137

In the context of Earth System evolution, the causal factors driving the Palaeoproterozoic Huronian global glaciations occupy a central position. The rise of O₂ at 2320 Ma, which eliminated most of the methane, was not apparently a single cause triggering the glaciation. At c. 2450 Ma mantle‐plume‐driven continental uplifts led to the emplacement of voluminous continental flood‐basalts in low latitudes that were subsequently dissected by rifting. Major topographical features and continental drainage patterns were most likely similar to those in younger continental flood‐basalt provinces and would have enabled deep weathering and erosion of extensive basalt‐covered continental areas. Intense consumption of atmospheric CO₂ by silicate weathering of fresh basaltic surfaces would have been further amplified by a constant organic carbon burial rate. These factors, similar to those of younger glacial periods, in combination with the diminished CH₄ greenhouse led to an onset of global cooling at the million‐year timescale.  相似文献   

A New Analytic Integration of the Rate Equation for Batch Dissolution of Salts in the Presence of Common Ion     

Victor W. Truesdale  Cristiana Sebu 《Aquatic Geochemistry》2013,19(1):39-56

Following a recent suggestion of a new rate equation specifically for the batch dissolution of salts in solutions containing a common ion, this paper describes an analytic solution to its integration. The equation has been tested by dissolving 250???m gypsum- rock particles in water (26.7?g?l^?1) containing various mixtures of sodium and calcium chlorides, all at an ionic strength of 0.060?M. The model fitted the experimental curves very well and showed that the dissolution slowed slightly overall when the initial calcium concentration was increased from 0 to 0.020?M. The dissolution curves were also modelled as a simple exponential, whence the fit was comparable to that with the new equation, with the exponential rate constant varying between 0.025 and 0.019 (±0.0004) for 0 and 0.020?M initial calcium concentration, respectively. Conventional Electrolyte theory from thermodynamics is used to show that the new equation is an inevitable consequence of modelling the net rate of dissolution in terms of a back reaction that is first order with respect to the dissolved substance, as per the recently described Shrinking Object model. Moreover, it is shown how the simple exponential model (which is a well-used plot in dissolution kinetics) provides the linear end-member to an infinite number of curvilinear plots of rate of dissolution versus reaction progress developed by the new model??it is the special case where common ion is absent. The results are now judged good enough to identify a generic batch dissolution rate equation for all salts dissolving without significant complication from either contaminants or their own gaseous species, as in calcium carbonate dissolution.  相似文献

FedIDS: a federated cloud storage architecture and satellite image delivery service for building dependable geospatial platforms     

J. L. Gonzalez-Compean  Victor J. Sosa-Sosa  Arturo Diaz-Perez  Jesus Carretero  Ricardo Marcelin-Jimenez 《International Journal of Digital Earth》2018,11(7):730-751

Earth observation satellites produce large amounts of images/data that not only must be processed and preserved in reliable geospatial platforms but also efficiently disseminated among partners/researchers for creating derivative products through collaborative workflows. Organizations can face up this challenge in a cost-effective manner by using cloud services. However, outages and violations of integrity/confidentiality associated to this technology could arise. This article presents FedIDS, a suite of cloud-based components for building dependable geospatial platforms. The Fed component enables organizations to build shared geospatial data infrastructure through federation of independent cloud resources to withstand outages, whereas IDS avoids violations of integrity/confidentiality of images/data in sharing information and collaboration workflows. A FedIDS prototype, deployed in Spain and Mexico, was evaluated through a study case based on a satellite imagery captured by a Mexican antenna and another based on a satellite imagery of a European observation mission. The acquisition, storage and sharing of images among users of the federation, the exchange of images between Mexican and Spanish sites and outage scenarios were evaluated. The evaluation revealed the feasibility, reliability and efficiency of FedIDS, in comparison with available solutions, in terms of performance, storage consume and integrity/confidentiality when sharing images/data in collaborative scenarios.  相似文献
