Geochemistry and petrology of primitive achondrite meteorites LEW 88280, MAC 88177, ALHA 81187, EET 84302, and LEW 88663 [PDF]

open access: yes
Primitive achondrites are meteorites that have mineral and bulk chemical compositions similar to the most primitive meteorites (chondrites) but have textures similar to more evolved meteorites (achondrites).

The mineralogy of newly formed dust in active galactic nuclei

open access: yes, 2017
The tori around active galactic nuclei (AGN) are potential formation sites for large amounts of dust, and they may help resolve the so-called dust budget crisis at high redshift.

Chemical and mineralogical characterization of silicon manganese iron slag as railway ballast

open access: yesREM: International Engineering Journal
In nature, metal ores such as iron, lead, aluminum and others are found in an impure state, sometimes oxidized and mixed with silicates of other metals. During casting, when the ore is exposed to high temperatures, these impurities are separated from the

Relationship Between Thermal Conductivity, Mineral Composition and Major Element Composition in Rocks from Central and South Germany

open access: yesGeosciences
Thermal conductivity is a decisive parameter in all geothermal applications. In addition to the influencing factors of density, saturation, porosity, temperature and pressure, it is, above all, the geochemical and mineralogical composition that ...

Outward Motion of Porous Dust Aggregates by Stellar Radiation Pressure in Protoplanetary Disks

open access: yes, 2014
We study the dust motion at the surface layer of protoplanetary disks. Dust grains in surface layer migrate outward due to angular momentum transport via gas-drag force induced by the stellar radiation pressure.

Evolution of oxygen isotopic composition in the inner solar nebula

open access: yes, 2005
Changes in the chemical and isotopic composition of the solar nebula with time are reflected in the properties of different constituents that are preserved in chondritic meteorites. CR carbonaceous chondrites are among the most primitive of all chondrite

Standards for electron probe microanalysis of silicates prepared by convenient method [PDF]

open access: yes, 1966
Standard compositions suitable for electron probe microanalysis of various silicates are prepared by coprecipitation of specified salts with colloidal silica to form a gel which is decomposed into a powdered oxide mixture and compressed into thin pellets.

Optical constants of refractory oxides at high temperatures

open access: yes, 2013
Many cosmic dust species, among them refractory oxides, form at temperatures higher than 300 K. Nevertheless, most astrophysical studies are based on the room-temperature optical constants of solids, such as corundum and spinel. A more realistic approach

Chemical and microbiological comparison of biodeterioration in Colombian heritage construccions

open access: yesUniversitas Scientiarum, 2013
Mortars from Bogotá, Villa de Leyva and Barichara were compared chemically and microbiologically. We analyzed the samples using atomic absorption and emission spectrometry, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron ...
