Magnesium Partitioning Between Earth's Mantle and Core and its Potential to Drive an Early Exsolution Geodynamo

Magnesium partitioning between metal and silicate was experimentally investigated between 34 and 138GPa, 3,500 and 5,450K using laser-heated diamond anvil cells. The 22 measurements are combined with previously published data (total of 49 measurements) to ...

Anomalous Vp/Vs ratios at seismic frequencies might evidence highly damaged rocks in subduction zones

Marie Estelle Solange Violay, Lucas Xan Pimienta

Unusually high compressional (P) to shear (S) wave velocity ratios (V-p/V-s) were measured at different subduction zones and interpreted as fluid-pressurized regions. Because no laboratory data reported such high values in isotropic rocks, mineralogical or ...

Zabinskiite, ideally Ca(Al0.5Ta0.5)(SiO4)O, a new mineral of the titanite group from the Pilawa Gorna pegmatite, the Gory Sowie Block, southwestern Poland

Philippe Buffat

Zabinskiite, ideally Ca(Al0.5Ta0.5)(SiO4) O, was found in a Variscan granitic pegmatite at Pilawa Gorna, Lower Silesia, SW Poland. The mineral occurs along with (Al, Ta, Nb)-and (Al, F)-bearing titanites, a pyrochlore-supergroup mineral and a K-mica in co ...

Weekly to monthly time scale of melt inclusion entrapment prior to eruption recorded by phosphorus distribution in olivine from mid-ocean ridges

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Othmar Müntener, Lukas Baumgartner, Mélina Manzini

Melt inclusions (MIs) hosted in euhedral olivine have been proposed to represent droplets of primary melt, protected from processes occurring near Earth's surface during eruption. The complex zoning of phosphorus (P) in some olivines and the presence of a ...

Incorporation of aluminium in calcium-silicate-hydrates

Karen Scrivener, Barbara Lothenbach, Émilie Michèle L'Hôpital

Calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) was synthetized at 20 degrees C to investigate the effect of aluminium uptake (Al/Si = 0-0.33) in the presence and absence of alkalis on the composition and the solubility of a C-S-H with a Ca/Si equal to 1.0. C-S-H incorpo ...

Synthesis of Homogeneous Manganese-Doped Titanium Oxide Nanotubes from Titanate Precursors

László Forró, Arnaud Magrez, Kurt Schenk, Endre Horvath, Bálint Náfrádi, Rita Smajda, Péter Szirmai, Zlatko Mickovic

We report a novel synthesis route of homogeneously manganese-doped TiO2 nanotubes in a broad concentration range. The scroll-type trititanate (H2Ti3O7) nanotubes prepared by hydrothermal synthesis were used as precursors. Mn2+ ions were introduced by an io ...

Adsorbed and near surface structure of ionic liquids at a solid interface

Kislon Voitchovsky, Juan José Segura Sugranes

The structure of solid-ionic liquid (IL) interfaces has been characterised with unprecedented clarity by employing a range of atomic force microscopy (AFM) imaging techniques and tip pressures appropriate for the system under study. Soft contact and amplit ...

Studies on the Effect of Strain on the Electronic Properties of Ultra Thin Films of Superconducting Cuprates

Nathaniel Wooding

High Tc superconductivity in cuprates is still an unresolved topic, and one particular challenge is why in-plane compressive strain enhances Tc in ultra thin LSCO-214 films (< 40nm), whilst tensile strain diminishes it. Especially intriguing is whether alt ...

Orbital Currents in Extended Hubbard Models of High-T-c Cuprate Superconductors

Frédéric Mila, Cédric Weber, Thierry Giamarchi

Motivated by the recent report of broken time-reversal symmetry and zero momentum magnetic scattering in underdoped cuprates, we investigate under which circumstances orbital currents circulating inside a unit cell might be stabilized in extended Hubbard m ...

Water adsorption on a sodium smectite clay surface: an ab initio study

John Christopher Plummer, Pascal Clausen

Using calculations based on density-functional theory, we explore the configurations that water molecules (2,3,4;6) assume on the surface a sodium 2:1 smectite clay with isomorphic substitutions both on octahedral and tetrahedral sheets. The hydrophilicity ...
