Thermal Dileptons as Fireball Thermometer and Chronometer
Thermal dilepton radiation from the hot fireballs created in high-energy heavy-ion collisions provides unique insights into the properties of the produced medium. We first show how the predictions of hadronic many-body theory for a melting ρ meson, coupled with quark-gluon plasma emission utilizing a modern lattice-QCD based equation of state, yield a quantitative description of dilepton spectr...
متن کاملOn Clays
Base-exchange determinations were made on selected clays of the montmorill0niteillite group to test this method as an analytical tool for the analysis of mixed-layer aggregates. The relatively rapid manganese method developed by Bower and Truog was used and its precision determined oll monodisperse, monomineralic fractions and monodisperse fractions of prepared mixtures of illite and montmorill...
متن کاملPleistocene glacial variability as a chaotic response to obliquity forcing
The mid-Pleistocene Transition from 40 ky to ∼100 ky glacial cycles is generally characterized as a singular transition attributable to scouring of continental regolith or a long-term decrease in atmospheric CO2 concentrations. Here an alternative hypothesis is suggested, that Pleistocene glacial variability is chaotic and that transitions from 40 ky to ∼100 ky modes of variability occur sponta...
متن کاملConcentration variance decay during magma mixing: a volcanic chronometer
The mixing of magmas is a common phenomenon in explosive eruptions. Concentration variance is a useful metric of this process and its decay (CVD) with time is an inevitable consequence during the progress of magma mixing. In order to calibrate this petrological/volcanological clock we have performed a time-series of high temperature experiments of magma mixing. The results of these experiments ...
متن کاملESR of clays
Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy has contributed significantly to the identification and characterization pf paramagnetic impurities associated with clays, Following a brief discussion of the general principles of the technique, a review is given of the application of ESR to the study of those paramagnetic species (chiefly iron and radiation-induced lattice defects) located either wit...
