Imbrication and Erosional Tectonics Recorded by Garnets in the Sikkim Himalayas
The Sikkim region of the Himalayas (NE India) may form an important microplate between Nepal and Bhutan. Here we report high-resolution pressure-temperature (P-T) paths taken from garnet-bearing rocks across the northern and eastern portion of the region’

Raman Study of the Slobodka Ordinary Chondrite
The texture and mineral chemistry of Slobodka are most consistent with L4 chondrites, exhibiting strong shock metamorphism characteristic of shock stage S4, including irregular and planar fractures, undulatory extinction, and mosaicism in olivine, pyroxene, and plagioclase.

Polarimetry of Water Ice Particles Providing Insights on Grain Size and Degree of Sintering on Icy Planetary Surfaces [PDF]
The polarimetry of the light scattered by planetary surfaces is a powerful tool to provide constraints on their microstructure. To improve the interpretation of polarimetric data from icy surfaces, we have developed the POLarimeter for ICE Samples ...

Pressure‐to‐Depth Conversion Models for Metamorphic Rocks: Derivation and Applications
Pressure‐to‐depth conversion is a crucial step toward geodynamic reconstruction. The most commonly used pressure‐to‐depth conversion method assumes that pressure corresponds to the lithostatic pressure.

Using Atomic Force Microscopy, the link between oocyte mechanical properties and actin cortex organization is investigated. In mouse oocytes, a thin actin cortex results in stiffer oocytes, while a thicker cortex leads to softer ones. Maternal age affects oocyte mechanics by altering cortex structure.

Evidence from Rb–Sr mineral ages for multiple orogenic events in the Caledonides of Shetland, Scotland [PDF]
Shetland occupies a unique central location within the North Atlantic Caledonides. Thirty-three new high-precision Rb–Sr mineral ages indicate a polyorogenic history.

Two Contrasting Exhumation Scenarios of Deeply Subducted Continental Crust in North Pakistan
In Western Himalayan Syntaxis, the India‐Asia continental collision occurred at ca. 50 Ma, while its uplift history and exhumation mechanism are still in dispute despite decades of studies. A new type of eclogite was found in Naran, located ca.

Single‐cell studies are on the rise; however, dynamic phenotyping studies remain challenging due to the lack of technologies. Single‐cell optical pH analysis (SCO‐pH) offers a high‐throughput, quantitative, and automated extracellular pH analysis platform based on microfluidic technologies.

The Mesozoic along-strike tectono-metamorphic segmentation of Longmen Shan (eastern Tibetan plateau) [PDF]
The Longmen Shan belt (eastern border of the Tibetan plateau) constitutes a tectonically active region as demonstrated by the occurrence of the unexpected 2008 Mw 7.9 Wenchuan and 2013 Mw 6.6 Lushan earthquakes in the central and southern parts of the ...
