Phase Transformation-Induced Interfacial Debonding of Silica Inclusions in Iron

Andreas Mortensen, David Hernandez Escobar, Julie Nathalie S Gheysen, Alejandra Inés Slagter

We document that in unstressed, undeformed, samples of pure iron containing silica inclusions precipitated by melt deoxidation, the iron matrix and a small fraction of the silica inclusions are locally separated at room temperature by a void. Thermal cycli ...

Oxygen diffusion in garnet: Experimental calibration and implications for timescales of metamorphic processes and retention of primary O isotopic signatures

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig

Knowledge of oxygen diffusion in garnet is crucial for a correct interpretation of oxygen isotope signatures in natural samples. A series of experiments was undertaken to determine the diffusivity of oxygen in garnet, which remains poorly constrained. The ...

Al uptake in calcium silicate hydrate and the effect of alkali hydroxide

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Yan Yan

The effect of Al and of pH on the structure of calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H), the most important hydration product in Portland and blended cement, was studied at Ca/Si similar to 1.0. The presence of Al led to higher amounts of secondary phases, larger ...

How does seismic anisotropy evolve as a function of mineralogical and textural changes across ductile shear zones? – an experimental and modelling approach

Henri Joseph François Gilles Leclère

Strain localization and the development of ductile shear zones in the middle and lower crust play major roles in lithosphere dynamics. Geophysical imaging of ductile shear zones is an issue for ore geology, for the understanding of the lithosphere rheology ...

Cubic zirconia in >2370◦C impact melt records Earth’s hottest crust

Cyril Cayron

Bolide impacts influence primordial evolution of planetary bodies because they can cause instantaneous melting and vaporization of both crust and impactors. Temperatures reached by impact-generated silicate melts are unknown because meteorite impacts are e ...

Plasticity of the dense hydrous magnesium silicate phase A at subduction zones conditions

Elodie Adeline Amiguet, Yi Wang

The plasticity of the dense hydrous magnesium silicate (DHMS) phase A, a key hydrous mineral within cold subduction zones, was investigated by two complementary approaches: high-pressure deformation experiments and computational methods. The deformation ex ...

Electrical conductivity in a partially molten crust from measurements on metasedimentary enclaves

Marie Estelle Solange Violay

The complex electrical impedance of a garnet-biotite-sillimanite residual enclave in the Neogene dacite of El Hoyazo (SE Spain) has been determined up to 978. °C at 200-300. MPa. This well studied material represents a direct sampling of the Alborán Domain ...

Shock-induced deformation of Shergottites: Shock-pressures and perturbations of magmatic ages on Mars

Philippe Gillet, Pierre Beck

Shergottites and Chassignites practiced major deformation effects whose nature, magnitude and relevance were controversially evaluated and disputatively debated. Our studies of many shocked shergottites present, contrary to numerous previous reports, ample ...

Formation Mechanisms and Structural Properties of Aluminium-Chromium Based Oxynitride Thin Films Synthesized by Physical Vapor Deposition

Hossein Najafi

Oxynitride thin films, a novel class of mixed anionic solid structures, have gained an intense interest during recent years related to the unique interplay of oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) with metals in the material structure. This matter can result in spec ...

Evidence for fractional crystallization of wadsleyite and ringwoodite from olivine melts in chondrules entrained in shock-melt veins

Philippe Gillet

Peace River is one of the few shocked members of the L-chondrites clan that contains both high-pressure polymorphs of olivine, ringwoodite and wadsleyite, in diverse textures and settings in fragments entrained in shock-melt veins. Among these settings are ...
