Metamorphic evolution of sillimanite gneiss in the high-pressure terrane of the Western Gneiss Region (Norway) [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Mineralogy
Sillimanite-bearing gneisses in the Romsdal region of the Western Gneiss Region (south Norway) have been investigated to document the presence, formation, composition and petrological evolution of the sillimanite-bearing assemblages. Sillimanite is found

(Energy related studies utilizing K-feldspar thermochronology) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
In our second year of current funding cycle, we have investigated the Ar diffusion properties and microstructures of K-feldspars and the application of domain theory to natural K-feldspars. We completed a combined TEM and argon diffusion study of the effect of laboratory heat treatment on the microstructure and kinetic properties of K-feldspar.

Assessment of Soiling Dynamics and Cleaning Efficiency for Photovoltaic Modules Under Different Dust Environments

open access: yesSolar RRL, EarlyView.
A laboratory framework reproduces site‐specific soiling and cleaning dynamics of photovoltaic modules using real dusts from contrasting climates. Accelerated humidity–temperature cycling replicates 1 month of outdoor cementation in only ≈ 1.5 days.

Rapakivi K‐Feldspar Megacrysts in Monzogranitic Porphyry: Evidence for Magma Recharge and Mush Rejuvenation

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
The formation, storage, and evolution of granitic magmas are fundamental processes driving the growth of continental crust. While traditionally attributed to crystal fractionation in high‐melt fraction magma chambers, the model invoking low‐melt fraction

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.

Selective Aggregation of Fine Spodumene from Quartz with Anionic Polyacrylamide Flocculant and Calcium Activator

open access: yesColloids and Interfaces
Fine spodumene particles are challenging to treat by froth flotation and are often discarded. An approach to recover the lithium-bearing mineral is to selectively aggregate fine spodumene into larger sizes that are amenable to recovery by flotation. This

Apollo 15 rake sample microbreccias and non-mare rocks: Bulk rock, mineral and glass electron microprobe analyses [PDF]

open access: yes
Quantitative electron microprobe data of Apollo 15 nonmare rake samples are presented. Bulk analyses of lithic fragments in the nomare rocks (expressed in oxide weight-percent) and the corresponding CIPW molecular norms are given.

Observation of centimetre-scale argon diffusion in alkali feldspars: implications for 40Ar/39Ar thermochronology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
New data from a gem-quality feldspar from Itrongay, Madagascar, record naturally occurring 40Ar/39Ar age profiles which can be numerically modelled by invoking a single diffusion mechanism and show that microtexturally simple crystals are capable of ...
