helicopter-borne electromagnetic (hem) is a fast and high resolution airborne electromagnetic (aem) method that is frequently used for imaging of the subsurface resistivity structures. this is a versatile and cost effective method, frequently has used in mineral and groundwater exploration and various environmental problems. modern frequency-domain hem systems utilize small electromagnetic, mag...

Research on the populations of rice grain bug Paraeuscosmetus pallicomis Dallas (Hemiptera: Lygaeidae) in paddy field ecosystems was performed with the aim to determine the populations of rice grain bug in weed-free paddy field, weedy paddy field, and paddy dykes. Experiment was carried out in the village of Paccellekang in the district of Patallasang of Gowa Regency in South Sulawesi, Indonesi...

This paper reports the correlation between film thickness, nanostructure and DC electrical properties of copper thin films deposited by PVD method on glass substrate. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used for crystallography and morphology investigation, respectively. Resistivity was measured by four point probe instrument, while a Hall effects measurement system w...

El Sela shear zone occurs in the younger granite rock of Gabal El Sela area, south Eastern Desert, Egypt near the Sudan Frontier. It comprises lines-arranged intrusions trending ENE-WSW and extend for about 1.5 km in length and reach up to 40 meters in width. These lines-arranged intrusions include multi-phase quartz veins, altered microgranite and altered basic dykes. These dykes hosting or ac...

Previous studies have shown that the 2.04 Ga Kangâmiut dyke swarm of SW Greenland was injected into an active tectonic environment associated with the formation of the Nagssugtoqidian orogenic belt. Major and trace element modelling of the swarm shows that its chemical evolution was controlled by simple clinopyroxene–plagioclase fractionation. However, such trends — although typical of continen...

The electron scattering at surfaces, interfaces, and grain boundaries is investigated using polycrystalline and single-crystal Cu thin films and nanowires. The experimental data is described by a Fuchs–Sondheimer (FS) and Mayadas–Shatzkes (MS) model that is extended to account for the large variation in the specific resistivity of different grain boundaries as well as distinct top and bottom su...

Magnetic and Electrical Resistivity Study of Electroless Amorphous Ternary System (Ni-Co-P) show a qualitative dependence of crystalline phases formed during transformation on the annealing temperature and composition. Electrical Resistivity values increases with increase in cobalt content and samples with higher resistivity show lower temperature coefficients. The Initial increase in magnetiza...

electrical resistivity survey is used to explore subsurface layers in hydrology, geology, mining, geotechnical and environmental investigations. the resistivity measurements are normally made by injecting current into the ground through two current electrodes, and measuring the resulting voltage difference at two potential electrodes. electrical resistivity is a function of injection current, m...

the igneous dykes are a small mafic rock unit exposed in the south gorgan of eastern alborz, north iran. these mafic dykes are intruded in the middle–upper paleozoic sedimentary and metamorphic rocks units representing a part of the north gondwana province. the studied samples were collected from various locations along the exposed bodies. thin sections of these rocks show medium to coarse grai...

Plagioclase crystal fragments and a block of anorthosite occur in small basaltic dykes on the Jos Plateau. The anorthosite is unusual, for the feldspar is labradoritic, but the interstitial mineralogy is granitic rather than basic, displaying granophyric intergrowths in places. The anorthosite is probably not an intermediate stage in fractionation from a basic parent magma towards granite, sinc...
