Shear wave splitting of the 2018 Lombok earthquake aftershock area, Indonesia

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2023
Lombok is one of the islands in the transitional zone from the Sunda Arc to the Banda Arc, Indonesia. In the mid-2018, the island of Lombok was shaken by a series of strong earthquakes, started with a moment magnitude (Mw) 6.4 earthquake on July 29, 2018

Strain engineering and photocatalytic application of single-layer ReS$_2$ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We present a theoretical study on the electronic, dynamical, and photocatalytic properties of single-layer ReS$_2$ under uniaxial and shear strains. The single-layer ReS$_2$ shows strong anisotropic responses to straining.

Lowermost Mantle Anisotropy Beneath Africa From Differential SKS‐SKKS Shear‐Wave Splitting

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 2019
We investigate seismic anisotropy in the lowermost mantle in the vicinity of the African large low shear velocity province (LLSVP) using observations of differential SKS‐SKKS shear‐wave splitting.

The Role of Variable Slab Dip in Driving Mantle Flow at the Eastern Edge of the Alaskan Subduction Margin: Insights From Shear‐Wave Splitting

open access: yesGeochemistry Geophysics Geosystems, 2019
Alaska provides an ideal tectonic setting for investigating the interaction between subduction and asthenospheric flow. Within the span of a few hundred kilometers along strike, the geometry of the subducting Pacific plate varies significantly and ...

Crack Features and Shear-Wave Splitting Associated with Fracture Extension during Hydraulic Stimulation of the Geothermal Reservoir in Soultz-sous-Forêts

open access: yesOil & Gas Science and Technology, 2016
The recent tomography results obtained within the scope of the Enhanced Geothermal System (EGS) European Soultz project led us to revisit the meso-fracturing properties of Soultz test site.

Upper‐Mantle Anisotropy and Dynamics Beneath Northeast Asia: Insight From SKS and Local S Splitting Analysis

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
Tectonics in Northeast Asia are characterized as the deep subduction of the Pacific Plate and the induced volcanism in Northeast China. Seismic anisotropy due to deformations is essential for understanding the mantle dynamics.

A new collective mode in the fractional quantum Hall liquid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We apply the methods of continuum mechanics to the study of the collective modes of the fractional quantum Hall liquid. Our main result is that at long wavelength there are {\it two} distinct modes of oscillations, while previous theories predicted only {

Shear Wave Splitting Evidence and Relations With Stress Field and Major Faults From the “Amatrice‐Visso‐Norcia Seismic Sequence”

open access: yesTectonics, 2019
We present the largest dataset of anisotropic high‐quality parameters (~12,000) for the Amatrice‐Visso‐Norcia seismic sequence and investigate the physical mechanisms causing crustal anisotropy and its relation with crustal deformation, stress field ...

Low-Frequency Raman Modes and Electronic Excitations In Atomically Thin MoS2 Crystals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Atomically thin MoS$_{2}$ crystals have been recognized as a quasi-2D semiconductor with remarkable physics properties. This letter reports our Raman scattering measurements on multilayer and monolayer MoS$_{2}$, especially in the low-frequency range ($

Preliminary analysis of crustal shear‐wave splitting in the Sanjiang lateral collision zone of the southeast margin of the Tibetan Plateau and its tectonic implications

open access: yesGeophysical Prospecting, 2019
The collision of the Indian and Eurasian plates, to the east of the eastern Himalayan syntaxes, forms the Sanjiang lateral collision zone in the southeast margin of the Tibetan Plateau, where there are intense crustal deformation, active faults ...
