Recent WMAP results indicate quite early reionization of the universe. Here we discuss possible implications on CMB anisotropies and CMB polarization of the early reionization.  相似文献   

The Kaidun meteorite: Mineralogy of an unusual CM1 lithology     

Michael E. ZOLENSKY  Andrei V. IVANOV  S. Vincent YANG  David W. MITTLEFEHLDT  Kazumasa OHSUMI 《Meteoritics & planetary science》1996,31(4):484-493

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   

Direct determination of barium in Sea water by inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry     

Masahito Sugiyama  Masakazu Matsui  Eiichiro Nakayama 《Journal of Oceanography》1984,40(4):295-302

A method for the determination of barium in sea water was investigated using inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometry, and sea water samples from the Japan Sea and the Pacific Ocean were directly analyzed by this method. Artificial sea water was used to prepare matrix matched standard solutions to overcome the problem of physical interference. The detection limit (signal/noise ratio=2) for barium in deionized and distilled water was 0.08µg l^?1 and in sea water, 0.12µg l^?1. The reproducibilities in the purified water and in the sea water at the 10µg l^?1 level were 0.7% a#FFFFFFnd 0.5%, respectively. The barium concentration in both the Japan Sea and the Pacific Ocean increased with depth and ranged between 5.5–10.0µg l^?1 and 4.1–18.4µg l^?1, respectively.  相似文献   

Effective stress analyses of liquefaction-induced deformation in river dikes   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

O. Ozutsumi  S. Sawada  S. Iai  Y. Takeshima  W. Sugiyama  T. Shimazu 《Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering》2002,22(9-12):1075-1082

A series of effective stress analyses is carried out on the seismic performance of river dikes based on the case histories during the 1993 Hokkaido-Nansei-oki and 1995 Hyogoken-Nambu earthquakes in Japan. Seven case histories selected for the analyses involve a crest settlement ranging from none to 2.7 m in the dikes 3–6 m high with evidence of liquefaction at foundation soil. The effective stress model used is based on a multiple shear mechanism and was developed by one of the authors. The soil parameters are evaluated based on the site investigation and laboratory test results. The results of the analyses are basically consistent with the observed performance of the river dikes. In particular, the effective stress model shows a reasonable capability to reproduce the varying degree of settlements depending on the geotechnical conditions of foundation soils beneath the dikes. The analyses also indicate that the effect of a cohesive soil layer mixed with the liquefiable sand layers beneath the dikes can be a primary factor for reducing the liquefaction-induced deformation of dikes.  相似文献

Traveling wave effects on a tall and narrow building: Observation and analysis     

T. Sugiyama  K. Maeda  M. Kaneko 《Computers and Geotechnics》1990,9(4):307-324

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the seismic response of a tall and narrow building, for example, a turbine building of thermal power plant, due to a traveling shear wave. It is considered that the dynamic response of the building can be affected by the spatial variance of seismic ground motion, because the building has a long-shaped foundation (43 meters wide by 343 meters long by 4 meters thick). First, analytical study was conducted using obliquely incident harmonic motion. And comparing the earthquake response observed at different points of foundation slab, it was found that the response at the end point where input wave reaches later is larger than that at the other end. From these studies, it was assured that the antisymmetric mode, which can be neglected in ordinary analysis, is excited by phase difference of input motion.  相似文献   

Structure and crystal chemistry of a dense polymorph of tricalcium phosphate Ca3 (PO4)2: A host to accommodate large lithophile elements in the earth's mantle     

K. Sugiyama  M. Tokonami 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1987,15(2):125-130

A phase of Ca₃ (PO₄)₂, synthesized at 12GPa and 2300° C, is structurally analyzed by the single crystal X-ray diffraction method. This Ca₃(PO₄)₂ is found to be a dense polymorph of tricalcium phosphate isostructural with Ba₃ (PO₄)₂ and named γ-Ca₃ (PO₄)₂. In the structure of Ca₃ (PO₄)₂, a phosphorus atom is tetrahedrally coordinated by oxygen atoms and calcium atoms occupy two types of large metal sites. The Ca(1) site has twelve oxygen neighbours with the mean bond length of 2.739 Å while the other Ca(2) site is coordinated by ten oxygen atoms with the mean Ca-O distance of 2.588Å. The structure is characterized by the translationally interconnected polyhedral sequence PO₄-Ca(2)O₁₀-Ca (1)O₁₂-Ca (2)O₁₀-PO₄ in the direction of the c axis. This dense phase of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ with two large metal sites may be an important host for very large lithophile elements in the deep upper mantle of the earth.  相似文献   

Japanese early-warning for debris flows and slope failures using rainfall indices with Radial Basis Function Network   总被引：3，自引：1，他引：2

Early-warning systems for natural disasters are important tools for disaster risk reduction and for achieving sustainable development and livelihoods. In 2005, the Japanese government initiated a new nationwide early-warning system for landslides disasters. The main methodology of the system is to set a criterion for occurrences of debris flows and slope failures based on several rainfall indices (60-min cumulative rainfall and soil–water index) in each 5-km grid mesh covering all of Japan. Because many of the records of mass movements are lacking in scientific precision on timing and location, the system applies Radial Basis Function Network methods to set the criterion based primarily on rainfall data recorded as not triggering disasters. Since the end of March 2007, under torrential rainfall conditions, early-warning information has been disseminated as part of weather news using TV, radio, and the Internet. Because of the increasing worldwide recognition of the importance of early-warning systems for natural disaster reduction, the aim of this article is to introduce the new Japanese early-warning system to the international landslide community. In this article, the method, the system, and the result of its application to landslide disasters in 2009 are presented.  相似文献
