Investigation of Barred Galaxies. VII. Comparative Statistics of SB and SA Galaxies. Near and Mid-IR Regions

The near and mid-IR properties of barred and unbarred spiral galaxies are discussed on the basis of complete samples that were compiled earlier. The two types of spirals are shown not to differ from one another in emission power in the near and mid-IR ranges. Multiple regression and principal component analysis have been applied to investigate near and mid-IR properties of SB and SA galaxies, particularly their relation to X-ray and radio continuum emissions. There are definite differences between SB and SA spirals in the near and mid-IR. In the case of SB galaxies, the compactness of 10 m emission is closely related to the J - H color index, and the redder J - H color corresponds to relatively more extended emission at 10 m. It is assumed that these are caused by the bar itself, which stimulates enhanced star formation in a barred galaxy with respect to unbarred spiral.     

Identification of some of the unidentified EIC-1 sources

We have identified 20 of the 75 unidentified Equatorial Infrared Catalogue Number-1 sources with stars in the BD Catalogue. Two of these are also found in the HD Catalogue.     

Some aspects of the succession and structure in the lower palaeozoic rocks of the southern uplands of scotland

Lower Palaeozoic successions in the Southern Uplands are much thicker than previously supposed and sedimentation may have lasted well into Ludlow times. Volcanic rocks are Arenig and Glenkiln in age and are often interbedded with greywackes and shales. Lapworth's concept of the structure as an anticlinorium and a synclinorium is rejected and it is suggested that the rocks have been folded into a series of compound monoclines which face north-westwards. These are probably cut by strike faults which bring up the older beds to the north.

Zusammenfassung Die altpaläozoischen Schichtfolgen in den Südlichen Hochlanden sind viel mächtiger, als bisher angenommen wurde, und die Ablagerung kann bis ins Ludlow gereicht haben. Vulkanite haben Arenig- und Glenkiln-Alter; sie wechsellagern oft mit Grauwacken und Tonschiefern.Lapworths Vorstellung, der tektonische Bau sei ein Antiklinorium und ein Synklinorium, wird bestritten. Es wird angenommen, daß die Gesteine zu zusammengesetzten Monoklinen gefaltet wurden, deren steile Flügel nordwestwärts weisen. Sie werden wahrscheinlich durch streichende Verwerfungen zerschnitten, die die älteren Schichten im Norden herausheben.

     

A study of volcanogenic exhalation mineralization

This paper considers volcanogenic exhalation mineralization using data from 35 years of observation of fumarole activity during an earlier phase of the posteruptive activity of the Second Cone, which is one of the New Tolbachik volcanoes that were formed during the eruption at the North Vent of the Great Tolbachik Fissure Eruption (Kamchatka, 1975–1976). We describe the main types of mineral associations, identify the key mineral species and the secondary and accessory minerals, as well as the sequence of mineral generation. We provide a summary of minerals and compounds that have been identified in ejecta of fumaroles on the Second Cone.

Magnetic Anisotropy as an Aid to Identifying CRM and DRM in Red Sedimentary Rocks

To further evaluate the potential of magnetic anisotropy techniques for determining the origin of the natural remanent magnetization (NRM) in sedimentary rocks, several new remanence anisotropy measurement techniques were explored. An accurate separation of the remanence anisotropy of magnetite and hematite in the same sedimentary rock sample was the goal.In one technique, Tertiary red and grey sedimentary rock samples from the Orera section (Spain) were exposed to 13 T fields in 9 different orientations. In each orientation, alternating field (af) demagnetization was used to separate the magnetite and hematite contributions of the high field isothermal remanent magnetization (IRM). Tensor subtraction was used to calculate the magnetite and hematite anisotropy tensors. Geologically interpretable fabrics did not result, probably because of the presence of goethite which contributes to the IRM. In the second technique, also applied to samples from Orera, an anisotropy of anhysteretic remanence (AAR) was applied in af fields up to 240 mT to directly measure the fabric of the magnetite in the sample. IRMs applied in 2 T fields followed by 240 mT af demagnetization, and thermal demagnetization at 90°C to remove the goethite contribution, were used to independently measure the hematite fabric in the same samples. This approach gave geologically interpretable results with minimum principal axes perpendicular to bedding, suggesting that the hematite and magnetite grains in the Orera samples both carry a depositional remanent magnetization (DRM). In a third experiment, IRMs applied in 13 T fields were used to measure the magnetic fabric of samples from the Dome de Barrot area (France). These samples had been demonstrated to have hematite as their only magnetic mineral. The fabrics that resulted were geologically interpretable, showing a strong NW-SE horizontal lineation consistent with AMS fabrics measured in the same samples. These fabrics suggest that the rock's remanence may have been affected by strain and could have originated as a DRM or a CRM.Our work shows that it is important to account for the presence of goethite when using high field IRMs to measure the remanence anisotropy of hematite-bearing sedimentary rocks. It also shows that very high magnetic fields (>10 T) may be used to measure the magnetic fabric of sedimentary rocks with highly coercive magnetic minerals without complete demagnetization between each position, provided that the field magnetically saturates the rock.
