Invisible Labor and the “Ghost Particle”: Underground Physics at the Kolar Gold Fields**

open access: yesBerichte zur Wissenschaftsgeschichte, Volume 48, Issue 1-2, Page 163-179, August 2025.
Abstract When cosmic rays—high‐energy particles from outer space—encounter the Earth's atmosphere, they produce particles called neutrinos. To detect them, physicists go underground inside deep mines where the overlying rock can filter out the cosmic‐ray background radiation.

Brittle Rock Failure in the Steg Lateral Adit of the Lötschberg Base Tunnel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Summary: During the crossing of brittle rock formations at the Lötschberg base tunnel, failure phenomena have been observed both at the tunnel face and at the walls. A detailed analysis has been undertaken to explain these behaviours, based on the recent

Recent Milestones in Unraveling the Full-Field Structure of Dynamic Shear Cracks and Fault Ruptures in Real-Time: From Photoelasticity to Ultrahigh-Speed Digital Image Correlation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The last few decades have seen great achievements in dynamic fracture mechanics. Yet, it was not possible to experimentally quantify the full-field behavior of dynamic fractures, until very recently.

A self-supervision rockburst risk prediction algorithm based on automatic mining of rockburst prediction index features

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The rockburst risk prediction based on microseismic (MS) data is an important research task in deep mine safety prevention. However, the lack of systematic research on explicit prediction indexes and the waste of a large amount of unlabeled data are ...

Electro-Magnetic Earthquake Bursts and Critical Rupture of Peroxy Bond Networks in Rocks

open access: yes, 2006
We propose a mechanism for the low frequency electromagnetic emissions and other electromagnetic phenomena which have been associated with earthquakes. The mechanism combines the critical earthquake concept and the concept of crust acting as a charging ...

Influence of longwall gateroad convergence on the process of mine ventilation network-model tests

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mining Science and Technology, 2019
Hard coal mines are required to constantly ventilate mine workings to ensure that the air composition is at a certain humidity and temperature level that is comfortable for underground mine workers, especially in deep deposits.

Detection and monitoring of high stress concentration zones induced by coal mining using numerical and microseismic method [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Zones of high stress concentration induced by coal mining at a depth of 1250 meters in the Lorraine Collieries are detected and monitored using a combination of numerical and microseismic methods.

Experimental study on the effect of water absorption level on rockburst occurrence of sandstone

open access: yesJournal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering
To investigate the mechanism of rockburst prevention by spraying water onto the surrounding rocks, 15 experiments are performed considering different water absorption levels on a single face.

Research on Stress Characteristics of Rockburst in Over-Length Deep-Buried Tunnel

open access: yesBuildings
As a unique geological hazard in a high-geo-stress environment, rockburst happens with strong suddenness, randomness, and destructiveness, but the mechanism of its occurrence in a deep-buried tunnel in a high-geo-stress environment needs further study ...
