The problematically short superwind of OH/IR stars - Probing the outflow with the 69 {\mu}m spectral band of forsterite [PDF]
, 2013 Spectra of OH/IR stars show prominent spectral bands of crystalline olivine (Mg$_{(2-2x)}$Fe$_{(2x)}$SiO$_{4}$). To learn more about the timescale of the outflows of OH/IR stars, we study the spectral band of crystalline olivine at 69 {\mu}m. The 69 {\mu}

Spatial Pattern Investigation of Olivine on Mars using OMEGA and MOLA Remote Sensing Data: A Case Study at Valles Marineris and Nili Fossae [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information SciencesOlivine is a mineral indicative of water activity in the mantle, and its presence can elucidate the petrological evolution and history of magmatic igneous rocks. In this work, we conducted a preliminary investigation into the characteristics and patterns

Formation mechanisms of ringwoodite: clues from the Martian meteorite Northwest Africa 8705
Earth, Planets and Space, 2021 Ringwoodite and wadsleyite are the high-pressure polymorphs of olivine, which are common in shocked meteorites. They are the major constituent minerals in the terrestrial mantle.

Olivine weathering in soil, and its effects on growth and nutrient uptake in Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.): a pot experiment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Mineral carbonation of basic silicate minerals regulates atmospheric CO(2) on geological time scales by locking up carbon. Mining and spreading onto the earth's surface of fast-weathering silicates, such as olivine, has been proposed to speed up this ...

Oxygen isotope geochemistry of the second HSDP core [PDF]
, 2003 Oxygen isotope ratios were measured in olivine phenocrysts (~1 mm diameter), olivine microphenocrysts (generally ~100–200 µm diameter), glass, and/or matrix from 89 samples collected from depths down to 3079.7 m in the second, and main, HSDP core (HSDP-2)

Olivine: a supergreen fuel [PDF]
Energy, Sustainability and Society, 2013 The hydration and carbonation of olivine, the most common mineral on Earth, produce a large amount of heat. Unfortunately, the reaction is too slow for normal technological applications, but when thermally well isolated, most of this heat can be recovered, not only for space heating but even for the production of high-pressure steam.
