LC/ESI-MS analysis of underivatized amino acids and mass spectrum [PDF]
We report the method of LC/ESI-MS analysis of underivatized amino acids with corresponding mass spectrum and fragmentation patterns. Diagnostic product ions determined by mass spectrometry can support the qualitative identification and quantitative estimation of individual amino acids. Therefore, the optimization of chromatographic separation using the

Using impact exsolution to link the Chicxulub collision and Deccan volcanism [PDF]
Observations suggest that impactors and volcanism are connected, but the mechanism that links these events is unknown. This research proposes the impact exsolution hypothesis to explain how planetary scale collisions trigger volcanism. This hypothesis says that when large objects such as asteroids or comets hit planets, they generate seismic waves that

Water Planets in the Habitable Zone: Atmospheric Chemistry, Observable Features, and the case of Kepler-62e and -62f [PDF]
Planets composed of large quantities of water that reside in the habitable zone are expected to have distinct geophysics and geochemistry of their surfaces and atmospheres. We explore these properties motivated by two key questions: whether such planets could provide habitable conditions and whether they exhibit discernable spectral features that ...

G.O.Joe: A new non‐commercial software tool for the processing of LA‐ICP‐MS trace element data
Key points G.O. Joe is developed to calculate trace element mass fractions including interference corrections. It is a freely accessible and platform‐independent web application to facilitate immediate data evaluation. Key feature is a simple, time‐efficient and flexible workflow to significantly improve data quality in various trace element studies ...

Abstract The long‐term behavior of high‐level radioactive waste glass depends on the mineralogical and geochemical interactions between the various components of the multibarrier system, under geological repository conditions. The present study focuses on SON68 glass alteration in synthetic cement water and at 50°C and 70°C.

A Cautionary Tale About Not ‘Joining the Dots’ to Infer Anticlockwise P$$ P $$‐T$$ T $$ Paths
ABSTRACT Uncertainty surrounds the cause and interpretation of anticlockwise pressure‐temperature (P$$ P $$–T$$ T $$) paths in metamorphic terranes. Here, we focus on the viability of a commonly proposed mechanism—magmatic heat transfer during thickening—using a case study of the Roineabhal terrane in Scotland, where such an anticlockwise P$$ P $$–T ...

Phase Equilibria Analysis for Metacarbonate With Applications to Zoned Calc‐Silicate Aureoles
ABSTRACT Carbonate rocks react with infiltrating hydrothermal fluids to produce zoned calcsilicate assemblages in contact aureoles. Petrogenetic grids provide valuable insights into phase relations, metamorphic temperature (T) and the fluid composition (X) of the metacarbonate systems, as well as semi‐quantification of the prograde decarbonation at ...

ABSTRACT This study presents a comprehensive examination of exceptionally preserved eclogites from the Baie Verte Peninsula, Newfoundland Appalachians, which display a high‐temperature overprint, thus offering insights into the metamorphic evolution and exhumation mechanisms of such terrains. Through an integrated approach combining field observations,

ABSTRACT The long‐term evolution of orogenic drainage systems is closely related to the propagation of tectonic structures, which gives rise to the topography and hence anisotropies for river incision. This study focuses on the subalpine Vercors Massif (SW French Alps), reconstructing the geometry of an uplifted paleo‐canyon and applying calcite U–Pb ...

Geochemistry of U and Th and its Influence on the Origin and Evolution of the Crust of Earth and the Biological Evolution [PDF]
We have investigated the migration behaviors of uranium (U) and thorium (Th) in Earth and other terrestrial planets. Theoretical models of U and Th migration have been proposed. These models suggest that the unique features of Earth are closely connected with its unique U and Th migration models and distribution patterns.
