Chapter 43 - Volcanism on Io
differentiation The process by which planets and satellites develop layers or zones of different chemical and mineralogical composition. flyby Term used to describe the close approach of a spacecraft to a body, without the spacecraft going into orbit around that body. Galilean satellites The four largest satellites of Jupiter (Io, Europa, Ganymede, Callisto), named after their discoverer Galile...
متن کاملBasaltic explosive volcanism: Constraints from deposits and models
Basaltic pyroclastic volcanism takes place over a range of scales and styles, from weak discrete Strombolian explosions (!10–10 kg s) to Plinian eruptions of moderate intensity (10–10 kg s). Recent well-documented historical eruptions from Etna, Kı̄lauea and Stromboli typify this diversity. Etna is Europe’s largest and most voluminously productive volcano with an extraordinary level and diversit...
متن کاملa study on thermodynamic models for simulation of 1,3 butadiene purification columns
attempts have been made to study the thermodynamic behavior of 1,3 butadiene purification columns with the aim of retrofitting those columns to more energy efficient separation schemes. 1,3 butadiene is purified in two columns in series through being separated from methyl acetylene and 1,2 butadiene in the first and second column respectively. comparisons have been made among different therm...
Silicate Cooling Model Fits to Galileo NIMS Data of Volcanism on Io
The Near Infrared Mapping Spectrometer (NIMS) has obtained spectra of volcanoes on the surface of the jovian satellite Io. Fits to data using a silicate cooling model allow us to constrain lava eruption rates and eruption age. The thermal signatures of the hot spots are indicative of active and cooling silicate lava flows. For large, active hot spots maximum ages of flow surfaces detected by NI...
متن کاملCERAMIC VOLCANISM ON REFRACTORY WORLDS: THE CASES OF IO AND CHONDRITE CAIs
Background/Overview: Most differentiated rocky worlds in our Solar System have mantles of olivine, pyroxene, spinel, and calcic plagioclase (or equivalent high-pressure phase assemblages). Earth’s mantle peridotite and similar rocks in other silicate planets and asteroids normally melt to form basaltic magma, komatiite, or other olivinenormative melts. Details of planetary mantle compositions a...
