Widespread empirical evidence suggests that extraterrestrial forcing influences the Earth's climate, but how this could occur remains unclear. Here we describe a new approach to this problem that unifies orbital, solar and lunar forcing based on their comm ...
The howardite-eucrite-diogenite (HED) clan is a group of meteorites that probably originate from the asteroid Vesta. Some of them are complex breccias that contain impact glasses whose compositions mirror that of their source regions. Some K-rich impact gl ...
The effect of titanium additions on the interface and mechanical properties of infiltrated Cu8 wt%Al-Al2O3 composites containing 57 +/- 2 vol% ceramic are investigated, exploring two different Al2O3 particle types and four different Ti concentrations (0, 0 ...
The trigonal structure of a new member of the eudialyte group was established from X-ray single-crystal diffraction, lambda(MoKalpha) = 0.71073 Angstrom; space group R3m; a = 14.153(9) Angstrom, c = 60.72(5) Angstrom, V = 10546.1 Angstrom(3); M = 3050; D-x ...
Highly textured PZT(111), PZT(001/100) and random PZT films have been grown on Pt and RuO2 bottom electrodes by means of an in-situ, multimagnetron reactive sputtering process with three metal targets (Pb, Zr, Ti). The orientation was varied with the botto ...
An efficient characterization of scientifically significant locations is essential prior to the return of humans to the Moon. The highest resolution imagery acquired from orbit of south-polar shadowed regions and other relevant locations remains, at best, ...
This is the second of two papers on the 3D numerical modeling of nearshore hydro- and morphodynamics. In Part I, the focus was on surf and swash zone hydrodynamics in the cross-shore and longshore directions. Here, we consider nearshore processes with an e ...
A key parameter in the study of magma evolution is the time scale on which magmatic processes occur. Using nanoscale secondary ion mass spectrometry (NanoSIMS), SIMS, and cathodoluminescence (CL) analyses, we have measured titanium (Ti) diffusion profiles ...
