Large Igneous Province Record Through Time and Implications for Secular Environmental Changes and Geological Time‐Scale Boundaries

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 1-26., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Electromagnetic Induction and Relativistic Double Layer: Mechanism for Ball Lightning Formation

open access: yesProceedings, 2019
What is the probability that ball lightning (BL) is a real phenomenon of nature? The answer depends on your prior information. If you are one of those lucky men who had a close encounter with a BL and escaped unscathed, your probability that it is real ...

Dynamics of blast wave and fireball after hydrogen tank rupture in a fire in the open atmosphere

open access: yesInternational journal of hydrogen energy, 2020
This paper describes a CFD model of the blast wave and fireball dynamics after high-pressure hydrogen tank rupture in a fire in the open atmosphere. Experiments on rupture in a fire of tanks with nominal working pressure 35 MPa and 70 MPa are used to ...

The Fireball integrated code package [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Many deep-space satellites contain a plutonium heat source. An explosion, during launch, of a rocket carrying such a satellite offers the potential for the release of some of the plutonium.

Mixed Phase Impact on Fireball Evolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In the evolution of fireballs produced by Ulra-Relativistic High Energy Collisions, the introduction of a first-order phase transition between Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) and hadronic matter phases was predicted to extend the fireball lifetime.

Types of Fireballs

open access: yes, 2018
The good properties of Plotkin's call-by-value lambda-calculus crucially rely on the restriction to weak evaluation and closed terms. Open call-by-value is the more general setting where evaluation is weak but terms may be open. Such an extension is delicate, and the literature contains a number of proposals.
