An algorithm for U-Pb isotope dilution data reduction and uncertainty propagation

U/pb and Cr Isotope Study of the Tafassasset

The Tafassasset meteorite which was found the Tenere dessert, Niger, in 2000 and 2001 consists of 26 pieces with a total weight of ~110 kg. The well-preserved meteorite has been studied by several groups [1-4], but until today no consensus on the meteorite's classification was obtained. Reasons for this difficulty are:-texture and mineral abundances vary considerably,-different individual stone...

An Algorithm for Modeling and Interpretation of Seismoelectric Data

Generally speaking, seismoelectric modeling is a prospecting method based on seismic and electromagnetic waves, in which waves generated by a seismic source at the boundary of the two environments generate a relative fluid-solid motion formed as a result of antagonism between the elastic properties of the environment with the saturated fluid. This research has as its objective, a study of the e...

Data reduction strategies, uncertainty assessment and resolution of LA–(MC–)ICP–MS isotope data

Isotope Dilution Residue Function

We analyzed the isotope dilution residue function from a single cardiac chamber for an arbitrary inlet distribution of tracer and arbitrary mixing within the chamber, and established a general relationship between cardiac output and the chamber residue function. In our experiments, we made simultaneous temperature measurements in three left ventricular chamber subregions of the dog subjected to...
