In this paper, we introduce Garnet, a novel visual interface for Digital Libraries. Garnet aims to provide a visual workspace in which the user can structure and organize documents of interest. This structure is then used to organize and filter further documents which may be of interest, such as search results.

dehsalm metamorphic complex located in east of iran consists of regionally metamorphosed rocks intruded by three phases of granitic masses. synkinematic porphyroblasts of garnet from staurolite-garnet schist present well preserved growth zoning. electron microprobe analysis of selected garnets was carried out to interpret the origin and pattern of zoning in amphibolite facies garnets and its im...

We have studied the correlated X-ray spectral and X-ray timing behavior of the Xray transient XTE J1806–246 using data obtained with the proportional counter array onboard the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. In the X-ray color-color diagram two distinct patterns are traced out. The first pattern is a curved branch, which is observed during the rise and the decay of the outburst. This pattern resem...

For estimations of P-T conditions of igneous and metamorphic rocks, Fe31 in coexisting minerals is either assumed to be zero or is calculated from electron microprobe analyses (EMPA) based upon stoichiometry and charge balance. Geothermobarometers that involve Fe21-Mg21 exchange can be significantly affected by either neglecting Fe31 or using incorrect values. Ratios of Fe31/SFe in garnet and c...

Chromium and vanadium are stable in multiple valence states in natural systems, and their distribution between garnet and silicate melt is not well understood. Here, the partitioning and valence state of V and Cr in experimental garnet/melt pairs have been studied at 1.8–3.0 GPa, with variable oxygen fugacity between IW-1.66 and the Ru-RuO2 (IW+9.36) buffer. In addition, the valence state of V ...

The prograde metamorphism of eclogites is typically obscured by chemical equilibration at peak conditions and by partial requilibration during retrograde metamorphism. Eclogites from the Eastern Blue Ridge of North Carolina retain evidence of their prograde path in the form of inclusions preserved in garnet. These eclogites, from the vicinity of Bakersville, North Carolina, USA are primarily co...

Owing to their high conductivity, crystalline Li7-3xGaxLa3Zr2O12 garnets are promising electrolytes for all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries. Herein, the influence of Ga doping on the phase, lithium-ion distribution, and conductivity of Li7-3xGaxLa3Zr2O12 garnets is investigated, with the determined concentration and mobility of lithium ions shedding light on the origin of the high conductivit...

Atoll islands are subject to a variety of processes that influence their geomorphological development. Analysis of historical shoreline changes using remotely sensed images has become an efficient approach to both quantify past changes and estimate future island response. However, the detection of long-term changes in beach width is challenging mainly for two reasons: first, data availability i...

For all sources in which the phenomenon of kilo-Hertz quasi-periodic oscillation (kHz QPO) is observed, the QPOs disappear abruptly when the inferred mass accretion rate exceeds a certain threshold. Although the threshold cannot at present be accurately determined (or even quantified) observationally, it is clearly higher for bright Z sources than for faint atoll sources. Here, we propose that ...

Textural, major element and trace element data for xeno-liths from Salt Lake Crater, Hawaii indicate that typical four phase lherzolite inclusions (olivine, orthopyroxene, chrome diopside and spinel) found worldwide in basalts are not samples of primitive upper mantle. Rather, lherzolite may be the recrystallized residue left after a basaltic melt extracts the easily fused components from pre-e...
