Effects of Surface and Morphological Properties of Zeolite on Impedance Spectroscopy-Based Sensing Performance

open access: yesSensors, 2012
Measurement by impedance spectroscopy of the changes in intrazeolitic cation motion of pressed pellets of zeolite particles upon adsorption of dimethylmethylphosphonate (DMMP) provides a strategy for sensing DMMP, a commonly used simulant for highly ...

Eye makeup in Northwestern Iran at the time of the Assyrian Empire: a new kohl recipe based on manganese and graphite from Kani Koter (Iron Age III)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Kohl was ubiquitous in ancient Egypt and the Middle East, and routinely included among the toiletries deposited in burials. For Egypt, kohl recipes are increasingly well‐studied and known to use a range of inorganic and organic ingredients. Although these are often lead‐based, manganese‐ and silicon‐rich compounds are also attested.

The First Archaeomagnetic Age at Tiwanaku and Implications for Dating Andean Metallurgical Furnaces

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents the first archaeomagnetic dating at Tiwanaku (Andean Altiplano). We compared the geomagnetic field values recorded by a metallurgical furnace against an updated SHAWQ2k‐SH global model and a regional intensity curve, both of which include, for the first time, high‐quality intensity data from the Southern Hemisphere.

Morphological and Morphometric Analysis of Animal Hair From 18th Century Burial Sites in Mazamet (Southwest France)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Morphological and morphometric analysis of archaeological animal hairs offers a nondestructive method to explore past clothing. We examined hair from two 18th‐century burial areas (SP03 and SP04) in Mazamet, France. SP03 specimens exhibited a continuous medulla, a low medullary index (0.2 ± 0.03) and cuticular features suggesting goat or ...
