Abstract: | The dislocation annihilation rate in experimentally deformed olivine single crystals was measured as a function of oxygen partial pressure (PO2). It was shown that the dislocation annihilation rate decreased with increasing PO2. This result is inconsistent with the reported PO2 dependence of creep rate () in single olivine crystals, thus indicating that the creep in single olivine crystals is not rate-controlled by recovery, under the experimentally investigated conditions. |
