Creeping Bentgrass Fairway Wear Resistance by Granular Topdressing of Ca/Mg-rich Liming Agents
Agriculture, 2020 Depletion of extractable silicon (Si) from surface soil depths has been observed in managed production systems. While not characterized as a plant essential nutrient, Si accrues in epidermal and vascular tissue of monocotyledonous plants.

Synthesis of porous silicates [PDF]
, 1995 The issues of importance and future concern in the synthesis of porous silicates and porous materials that contain a large fraction of silica, e.g. zeolites and other crystalline molecular sieves, are reviewed. The thermodynamics of zeolite synthesis are

On the Anomalous Silicate Absorption Feature of the Prototypical Seyfert 2 Galaxy NGC 1068 [PDF]
MNRAS, 406, L6-L10 (2010), 2012 The first detection of the silicate absorption feature in AGNs was made at 9.7 micrometer for the prototypical Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 1068 over 30 years ago, indicating the presence of a large column of silicate dust in the line-of-sight to the nucleus.

Spectroscopic diagnostic for the mineralogy of large dust grains [PDF]
, 2003 We examine the thermal infrared spectra of large dust grains of different chemical composition and mineralogy. Strong resonances in the optical properties result in detectable spectral structure even when the grain is much larger than the wavelength at ...

On the plasticity of Si-O framawork of alkali zinc silicates [PDF]
, 1997 The configuration of the Si-O framework in alkali zinc silicates has been investigated on the basis of recently determined structures. The results have shown that there is a linear correlation between the ionic radii of alkali ions and the molar ...

New interaction potentials for alkaline earth silicate and borate glasses [PDF]
, 2021 Structure and properties of magnesium silicate and borate melts and glasses were investigated by using newly parameterized interaction potentials in molecular dynamics simulations and compared with those of calcium silicate and borate. The competition between the depolymerization of the silica network and the formation of new bonds with modifier ions ...

Thermal Processing of Silicate Dust in the Solar Nebula: Clues from Primitive Chondrite Matrices [PDF]
Astrophys.J. 623 (2005) 571-578, 2005 The most abundant matrix minerals in chondritic meteorites, hydrated phyllosilicates and ferrous olivine crystals, formed predominantly in asteroids during fluid-assisted metamorphism. We infer that they formed from minerals present in three less altered carbonaceous chondrites that have silicate matrices composed largely of micrometer- and nanometer ...
