Detectability of smart proppants traced with gadolinium and samarium in the Vaca Muerta formation [PDF]
Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2019 Abstract The use of smart proppants traced with gadolinium and samarium was evaluated in a realistic model by Monte Carlo simulations. The addition of compounds with high thermal neutron capture cross section, such as gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3) and samarium oxide (Sm2O3) into ceramic proppants, makes them detectable after placement in induced ...

The early fossil record of Caturoidea (Halecomorphi: Amiiformes): biogeographic implications
Swiss Journal of Palaeontology, 2023 Caturoidea is a clade of Mesozoic predatory ray-finned fishes which lived mainly in the Jurassic. The clade has a few records in the earliest Cretaceous and only two in the Triassic. Among the latter, specimen MPCA 632 Caturus sp.
