The acceleration of back-scattered beam electrons in a return-current electric field     

Marian Karlický 《Solar physics》1993,145(1):137-150

Using a 1-D hybrid model of the electron beam bombardment in a flare loop, it is demonstrated that beam electrons, back-scattered in dense layers of the solar atmosphere, are accelerated in the return-current electric field. This effect is shown in two regimes of the electron beam bombardment: (a) with a monoenergetic quasi-steady beam, and (b) with a sequence of 4 pulse beams. It is suggested that the mirroring of electrons at loop magnetic mirrors can amplify this process. The role of such acceleration for the formation of a collisionless return-current, and thus for a decrease of return-current losses, is discussed.  相似文献   

An analysis of Skylab X-ray pictures of a giant coronal arch     

Stanislava Šimberová  Marian Karlický  Zdeněk Švestka 《Solar physics》1993,146(2):343-356

The limb event of 13/14 August, 1973, imaged by Skylab in soft X-rays, proved to be a giant arch, quite similar to those observed in 1980–1986 on SMM. High spatial resolution (by a factor of 4–5 better than in SMM data) made it possible to see the internal structure of the arch. Its brightest part consisted of loops very similar to, but higher than, post-flare loops, surrounded by a rich system of weak loop structures extending up to altitudes of 260 000 km. While the main brightest structure of the arch was newly formed, the weak very large loops had existed above the active region before and were only enhanced during the event.Skylab data support the model proposed by Kopp and Poletto that the giant arch is formed by reconnections high in the corona, different from the reconnection process in the underlying flare. However, contrary to Kopp and Poletto's suggestion, the data strongly indicate that the field lines that reconnect in the arch did not open before, as in the Kopp and Pneuman model: more likely, we encounter here an interaction of large-scale loops high in the corona. (The interaction of two of them is clearly seen.) Thus, while post-flare loops are formed by the Kopp and Pneuman mechanism, giant arches above eruptive flares may originate through interactive reconnections of large-scale magnetic field lines which form loops high in the corona. These loops are brought close to each other in consequence of changes in the coronal structure caused by the eruptive flare phenomenon. The arch-associated enhancement of the pre-existing large-scale active-region loops may be caused by electrons accelerated during the reconnection process and diffusing across field lines, as suggested by Achterberg and Kuipers (1984).  相似文献

The generation of MHD shock waves during the impulsive phase of the February 27, 1992 flare     

Marian Karlický  Dušan Odstrčil 《Solar physics》1994,155(1):171-184

In this paper a unique 2.3–4.2 GHz radio spectrum of the flare impulsive phase, showing fast positively drifting bursts superimposed on a slowly negatively drifting burst, is presented. Analyzing this radio spectrum it was found that the flare started somewhere near the transition region, where upward propagating MHD waves were generated during the whole impulsive phase. Moreover, it was found that behind a front of these ascending MHD waves the downward propagating electron beams, which bombarded dense layers of the solar atmosphere, were accelerated. It seems that, simultaneously with the increase of beam bombardment intensity, the intensity of MHD waves was increasing and thus the MHD shock wave generation and the electron beam acceleration and bombardment formed a self-consistently amplifying flare process. At higher coronal heights this process was followed by a type II radio burst, i.e. by the MHD flare shock. To verify this concept, the numerical modeling of the shock-wave generation and propagation in space from a flare site near the transition region up to 3 solar radii was made. Comparing the thermal and magnetic field disturbances, it was found that those of magnetic origin are more relevant in this case. Combining the results of interpretation and numerical simulation, a model of the February 27, 1992 flare is suggested and new aspects of this model are discussed.  相似文献   

A Textural Record of Solidification and Cooling in the Skaergaard Intrusion, East Greenland   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

The clinopyroxene–plagioclase–plagioclase dihedralangle, _cpp, in gabbroic cumulates records the time-integratedthermal history in the sub-solidus and provides a measure oftextural maturity. Variations in _cpp through the Layered Seriesof the Skaergaard intrusion, East Greenland, demonstrate thatthe onset of crystallization of clinopyroxene (within LZa),Fe–Ti oxides (at the base of LZc) and apatite (at thebase of UZb) as liquidus phases in the bulk magma is recordedby a stepwise increase in textural maturity, related to an increasein the contribution of latent heat to the total heat loss tothe surroundings and a reduction in the specific cooling rateat the crystallization front of the intrusion. The onset ofboth liquidus Fe–Ti oxide and apatite crystallizationis marked by a transient increase in textural maturity, probablylinked to overstepping before nucleation. Textural maturationat pyroxene–plagioclase–plagioclase triple junctionseffectively ceases in the uppermost parts of the Layered Seriesas a result of the entire pluton cooling below the closure temperaturefor dihedral angle change, which is 1075°C. Solidificationof the Layered Series of the Skaergaard intrusion occurred viathe upwards propagation of a mush zone only a few metres thick.

Comparative carbon emission assessments of recycled and natural aggregate concrete:Environmental influence of cement content     

Marian Sabǎu  Dan V.Bompa  Luis F.O.Silva 《地学前缘(英文版)》2021,12(6):66-75

This work examines the environmental and geochemical impact of recycled aggregate concrete produc-tion with properties representative for structural applications.The environmental influence of cement content,aggregate production,transportation,and waste landfilling is analysed by undertaking a life cycle assessment and considering a life cycle inventory largely specific for the region.To obtain a detailed insight into the optimum life cycle parameters,a sensitivity study is carried out in which supplementary cementitious materials,different values of natural-to-recycled aggregate content ratio and case-specific transportation distances were considered.The results show that carbon emissions were between 323 and 332 kgCO2e per cubic metre of cement only natural aggregate concrete.These values can be reduced by up to 17％by replacing 25％of the cement with fly ash.By contrast,carbon emissions can increase when natural coarse aggregates are replaced by recycled aggregates in proportions of 50％and 100％,and trans-portation is not included in analysis.However,the concrete with 50％recycled aggregate presented lower increase,only 0.3％and 3.4％for normal and high strength concrete,respectively.In some cases,the rel-ative contribution of transportation to the total carbon emissions increased when cement was replaced by fly ash in proportions of 25％,and case-specific transportation distances were considered.In absolute values,the concrete mixes with 100％recycled aggregates and 25％fly ash had lower carbon emissions than concrete with cement and natural aggregates only.Higher environmental benefits can be obtained when the transportation distances of fly ash are relatively short(15-25 km)and the cement replacement by fly ash is equal or higher than 25％,considering that the mechanical properties are adequate for prac-tical application.The observations from this paper show that recycled aggregate concrete with strength characteristics representative for structural members can have lower carbon emissions than conventional concrete,recommending them as an alternative to achieving global sustainability standards in construction.  相似文献   

Orthopyroxene oikocrysts in the MG1 chromitite layer of the Bushveld Complex: implications for cumulate formation and recrystallisation     

Felix?E.?D.?KaufmannEmail authorView author&#;s OrcID profile  Zoja?Vukmanovic  Marian?B.?Holness  Lutz?Hecht 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》2018,173(2):17

Two typical mineral textures of the MG 1 chromitite of the Bushveld Complex, South Africa, were observed; one characterised by abundant orthopyroxene oikocrysts, and the other by coarse-grained granular chromitite with only minor amounts of interstitial material. Oikocrysts form elongate clusters of several crystals aligned parallel to the layering, and typically have subhedral, almost chromite-free, core zones containing remnants of olivine. The core zones are surrounded by poikilitic aureoles overgrowing euhedral to subhedral chromite chadacrysts. Chromite grains show no preferred crystal orientation, whereas orthopyroxene grains forming clusters commonly share the same crystallographic orientation. Oikocryst core zones have lower Mg# and higher concentrations of incompatible trace elements compared to their poikilitic aureoles. Core zones are relatively enriched in REE compared to a postulated parental magma (B1) and did not crystallise in equilibrium with the surrounding minerals, whereas the composition of the poikilitic orthopyroxene is consistent with growth from the B1 magma. These observations cannot be explained by the classic cumulus and post-cumulus models of oikocryst formation. Instead, we suggest that the oikocryst core zones in the MG1 chromitite layer formed by peritectic replacement of olivine primocrysts by reaction with an upwards-percolating melt enriched in incompatible trace elements. Poikilitic overgrowth on oikocryst core zones occurred in equilibrium with a basaltic melt of B1 composition near the magma-crystal mush interface. Finally, adcumulus crystallisation followed by grain growth resulted in the surrounding granular chromitite.  相似文献

Particle tracking experiments in match-index-refraction porous media     

Lachhab A  Zhang YK  Muste MV 《Ground water》2008,46(6):865-872

A low-cost, noninvasive, three-dimensional (3D), particle tracking velocimetry system was designed and built to investigate particle movement in match-index-refraction porous media. Both a uniform load of the glass beads of the same diameter and a binary load of the glass beads of two diameters were used. The purpose of the experiments is to study the effect of the two loads on the trajectories, velocity distribution, and spreading of small physical particles. A total of 35 particles were released and tracked in the uniform load and 46 in the binary load. The 3D trajectory of each particle was recorded with two video camcorders and analyzed. It is found that the particle's velocity, trajectory, and spreading are very sensitive to its initial location and that the smaller pore size or heterogeneity in the binary load increases the particles' velocity and enhances their spreading as compared with the uniform load. The experiments also verified the previous finding that the distribution of the particle velocities are lognormal in the longitudinal direction and Gaussian in two transverse directions and that the particle spreading is much larger along the longitudinal direction than along the traverse directions.  相似文献   

Partial melting of the Appin Quartzite driven by fracture-controlled H2O infiltration in the aureole of the Ballachulish Igneous Complex, Scottish Highlands     

Marian B. Holness  John D. Clemens 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1999,136(1-2):154-168

The Ballachulish Igneous Complex consists of an outer quartz diorite and an inner granite, emplaced at about 300 MPa, initially at 1000 to 1050 °C. The contact aureole (0.5–2 km wide) occurs in metapelites and metapsammites plus minor graphitic slates, carbonate rocks and metaquartzites. A textural examination of the arkosic Appin Quartzite, which was previously believed to have melted only within a few metres of the intrusion, demonstrates that partial melting occurred up to 500 m away from the vertical eastern contact. Coupling petrographic observations with Qtz-Ab-Or-H₂O phase relations, we determined both the amounts of actual melt and the maximum possible amounts of melt in the samples. Melting efficiency was everywhere less than 100% and decreased with distance from the intrusion. Though perhaps not the only possible source of fluid throughout the aureole, simple models demonstrate that H₂O evolution from the pluton would have been volumetrically sufficient and persisted long enough to account for the observed partial melting. A time-integrated fluid flux of 7000 kg/m² from the pluton is necessary to account for the observed amounts of partial melt in the Appin Quartzite. From its inefficiency, we infer that infiltration of the Appin Quartzite cannot have occurred along interconnected grain-edge channels. Rather, it was controlled by hydraulic fracturing, with fracture density determining melting efficiency. Bulk-rock permeability is calculated to be 10⁻²⁰ m², an order of magnitude lower than that necessary to permit pervasive flow of all the fluid exsolving from the pluton. There is little difference between the calculated time-integrated fluid flux through the Appin Quartzite on the eastern flank and an estimate of the infiltrating flux through the pelitic Leven Schist on the western flank in the time interval during which both rock types were above their solidus temperature, despite differences in their equilibrium quartz-H₂O dihedral angles at temperatures immediately below the solidus, and differences in the attitude of the contact. The rates of H₂O expulsion from the cooling pluton are consistent with highly efficient fracture-dominated flow, allowing insufficient time for textural equilibration.
