The Age of Globular Clusters [PDF]
I review here recent developments which have affected our understanding of both the absolute age of globular clusters and the uncertainties in this age estimate, and comment on the implications for cosmological models.

Age and isotopic fingerprints of some plutonic rocks in the Wiborg rapakivi granite batholith with special reference to the dark wiborgite of the Ristisaari Island [PDF]
The mid-Proterozoic, locus classicus Wiborg rapakivi granite batholith of southeastern Finland and adjacent Russia comprises a varying, bimodal (silicic-basic) sequence of plutonic, subvolcanic, and volcanic rocks. At the current level of erosion silicic

Temporal and Hf isotope geochemical evolution of southern Finnish Lapland from 2.77 Ga to 1.76 Ga [PDF]
The southern Finnish Lapland area in the central part of the Fennoscandian shield is a geologically complex zone comprising several Archean blocks and Paleoproterozoic supracrustal belts all of which are intruded by voluminous Paleoproterozoic granites ...

A pilot Rb-Sr dating of the Suomusjärvi ultramylonite: evidence for major post-Svecofennian deformation in SW Finland [PDF]
The Suomusjärvi shear zone in the West Uusimaa area in the Proterozoic Svecofennides of SW Finland belongs to a group of late, post-peak metamorphic structures comprising vertical shear zones and folds with vertical fold axes.

Strong spectral lines are useful indicators of stellar chromospheric activity. They are physically linked to the convection efficiency, differential rotation, and angular momentum evolution and are a potential indicator of age. However, for ages > 2 Gyr,

Brain Age from the Electroencephalogram of Sleep [PDF]
The human electroencephalogram (EEG) of sleep undergoes profound changes with age. These changes can be conceptualized as "brain age", which can be compared to an age norm to reflect the deviation from normal aging process.

Three Paleoproterozoic A-type granite intrusions and associated dykes from Kainuu, East Finland [PDF]
Mafic and felsic intrusive rocks aged 2.5-2.4 Ga have been observed over a large area in eastern and northern Finland, as well as in adjacent northwestern Russia. We describe three granite intrusions and associated dykes from Kainuu, Finland, that belong

Deuterium-burning in substellar objects [PDF]
We consider the depletion of primordial deuterium in the interior of substellar objects as a function of mass, age and absolute magnitude in several photometric passbands.

Timing of late Palaeoproterozoic metamorphism in the northern Belomorian Belt, White Sea region: Conclusions from U-Pb isotopic data and P-T evidence [PDF]
Brilliant-looking zircon crystals from a garnet-amphibolitic, metamorphosed mafic dyke at Lyagkomina in the Lake Kovdozero area, northern Belomorian Belt, most probably mark the 1875±4 Ma age of peak late Palaeoproterozoic regional metamorphism which ...
