低温低压条件下辉石粉末的热导率实验分析:对月球及火星表面热环境研究的指示

在真空条件下矿物粉末热导率的实验测量,可为我们研究月球及行星表面的热属性和热演化,解译热红外和微波探测数据,开展月球及行星探测载荷设计提供重要的数据参数。本研究主要采用改造后的Hot Disk TPS 2500S导热仪对辉石粉末的热导率进行测量。同时,分析了真空度、温度对辉石粉末热导率的影响。实验结果表明:1)热导率随着真空度的降低呈下降趋势,大气压力在1000Pa时,辉石粉末热传导机制发生明显改变。在低压条件下(1000Pa)热导率随真空度的变化趋于平缓;2)辉石粉末热导率随温度的升高而增大,但是增大的幅度在低压和常压条件下存在明显差异。根据实验结果,提出了低压条件下辉石粉末热导率随真空度和温度变化的关系式。本研究表明,在月球和火星表面热环境的研究中,温度和压力对热导率的影响程度是不同的。上述结果对未来开展地外样品的热导率测量提供了重要的参考。     

Sigmoidal exsolution by internal shear stress in pyroxenes from chondritic meteorites

Pyroxenes of pigeonitic and augitic bulk compositions in H3–4 chondritic meteorites commonly exhibit sigmoidal precipitates, rather than the elsewhere common lamellar associations. Most often, submicrometric sigmoids with calcic clinopyroxene composition occur within clinoenstatite; more rarely, clinoenstatite sigmoids occur within calcic clinopyroxene. The sigmoids appear as 001 terminated lamellae, with terminations rotated in opposite directions towards the 100 orientation. Pre-exsolution pigeonite and augite formed at temperatures higher than 980 °C, whereas sigmoidal exsolution occurred between 990 and 830 °C. Local anomalous lattice parameters determined by electron diffraction suggest that lattice parameters are most strained where the exsolution texture is most poorly defined. Shear strain occurs during exsolution due to mismatching lattice parameters and variable angles. In response to shear stress, the lamellae relax and assume sigmoidal strained morphologies. Sigmoidal exsolution is strongly controlled by (100) orthoenstatite stacking faults that possibly trigger exsolution.     

西准噶尔白碱滩二辉橄榄岩中两种辉石的出溶结构及其地质意义

克拉玛依白碱滩尖晶石二辉橄榄岩主要由橄榄石、单斜辉石、斜方辉石和尖晶石组成,橄榄石和斜方辉石均发生程度不等的蛇纹石化。单斜辉石一般很新鲜。单斜辉石和斜方辉石均发育出溶结构,出溶条纹或者平直或者发生舒缓的弯曲变形(即便是在发生弯曲的情况下也是完全平行的)。透辉石-普通辉石出溶体一般呈针状(直径一般为1μm,长度>150μm),顽火辉石出溶条纹直径一般为1～3μm(长度>300μm)。斜方辉石主晶属于顽火辉石-易变辉石,单斜辉石主晶为透辉石(成分很均一)。地质温度压力估算表明,白碱滩二辉橄榄岩中辉石出溶结构发生的温度为700℃～1000℃、压力为2.0～2.7GPa,它们代表辉石出溶结构形成的最低PT条件。白碱滩二辉橄榄岩至少经历了三个演化阶段:原始辉石与尖晶石和橄榄石平衡共生(阶段Ⅰ,>94km);随着地幔上隆,原始辉石结构不稳定,分解并形成出溶结构(阶段Ⅱ,700℃～1000℃),斜方辉石开始分解的深度为94km,单斜辉石开始分解的深度为78km;之后,蛇绿岩经历的侵位事件导致辉石发生塑性变形(阶段Ⅲ)。蛇绿岩侵位之前,地幔岩曾发生了>50km的隆升,而且,在隆升过程中地幔岩没有发生明显部分熔融(地幔岩因此没有经历明显的岩浆抽提过程)。     

Elasticity of an upper mantle clinopyroxene

The ambient pressure elastic properties of a natural clinopyroxene (C2/c symmetry) from Kilbourne Hole, NM have been determined. In terms of end-members, diopside (CaMgSi₂O₆), hedenbergite (CaFeSi₂O₆), jadeite (NaAlSi₂O₆), cosmochlor (NaCrSi₂O₆), and Mg-Tschermak (MgAl(AlSi)O₆), its composition is Di₇₂He₉Jd₃Cr₃Ts₁₂. The analytic density, based on chemistry and cell parameters is 3.327 (0.003) g/cm³. The elastic constants [c₁₁, c₁₂, c₁₃, c₁₅, c₂₂, c₂₃, c₂₅, c₃₃, c₃₅, c₄₄, c₄₆, c₅₅, c₆₆] are [273.8 (0.9), 83.5 (1.3), 80.0 (1.1), 9.0 (0.6), 183.6 (0.9), 59.9 (1.6), 9.5 (1.0), 229.5 (0.9), 48.1 (0.6), 76.5 (0.9), 8.4 (0.8), 73.0 (0.4), 81.6 (1.0)] GPa where uncertainties are reported at the 95% confidence level. The aggregate (mean of Hashin-Strikman bounds) adiabatic bulk modulus is 117.2 (0.7) GPa, and the shear modulus is 72.2 (0.2) GPa. Although measured moduli are broadly consistent with trends in elasticity versus atomic volume, deviations from the systematics would produce significant (percent level) changes in calculated velocities for candidate mantle mineral assemblages. The compositional dependence of elasticity for several clinopyroxenes is explored on the basis of just the Di+He and Jd+Ts mole fractions. The bulk modulus lies within experimental uncertainties of the linear mixture of end-member properties while the shear modulus deviates by 3%.

九瑞矿集区隶属于长江中下游铜-铁-金成矿带,该矿集区内主要发育有武山、城门山、洋鸡山、丁家山等大中型铜金多金属矿床。区内的南港成矿远景预测区位于横立山-黄桥向斜的南翼,地质条件与该向斜北翼的武山铜矿基本一致。本文以南港地区发现的煌斑岩为研究对象,对其中的辉石进行了详细的岩相学和电子探针成分分析工作,来探讨煌斑岩的演化过程及岩石成因。测试结果显示,南港煌斑岩中的辉石,具有高Ca、高Mg,低Ti,贫Al、贫Fe的特点。斑晶中的辉石属于透辉石和普通辉石,基质中的辉石则属于普通辉石。辉石斑晶的viAl和Na2O含量很低,指示其形成压力较小。由早到晚从斑晶到基质,辉石向着富铁富钙的方向演化。辉石发育有反环带及韵律环带,显示在岩浆房中可能受到过岩浆混合作用的影响。辉石的矿物化学特征指示南港煌斑岩属碱性岩石系列。

内蒙古中部毫义哈达岩体的年代学和地球化学特征

内蒙古中部毫义哈达岩体位于华北板块北缘陆缘增生带,通过对该岩体进行系统的年代学与地球化学研究表明,毫义哈达岩体是由辉石闪长岩类构成。在对两个样品中的锆石进行LA-ICP-MS U-Pb定年,结果(加权平均年龄)均为266±2 Ma,表明岩体的形成时代为晚二叠世。对14个样品进行主量元素和微量元素分析,表明岩体属钙—碱性系列;Eu有一定程度的负异常,富集大离子亲石元素Rb、Sr及轻稀土,亏损高场强元素Nb、Ta,富Cu、Cr等过渡元素。岩体在地球化学上还具有岛弧火山岩的特征,推测其岩浆源区曾遭受过古亚洲洋板片流体交代。依据区域构造演化,推测毫义哈达岩体侵位于造山后伸展环境,成岩物质来源于上地幔并且发生了结晶分离作用。地球化学的特征以及在该岩体发现的铜钨矿化,预示着该地区将是一个有利的成矿远景区。     

A comparison of procrystal and ab initio model representations of the electron-density distributions of minerals

 The procrystal calculation of the electron density is a very rapid procedure that offers a quick way to analyze various bonding properties of a crystal. This study explores the extent to which the positions, number, and properties of bond-critical points determined from the procrystal representations of the electron density for minerals are similar to those of first-principles ab initio model distributions. The purpose of the study is to determine the limits imposed upon interpretation of the procrystal electron density. Procrystal calculations of the electron density for more than 300 MO bonds in crystals were compared with those previously calculated using CRYSTAL98 and TOPOND software. For every bond-critical point found in the ab initio calculations, an equivalent one was also found in the procrystal model, with similar magnitudes of electron density, and at similar positions along the bonds. The curvatures of the electron densities obtained from the ab initio and the procrystal distributions are highly correlated. It is concluded that the procrystal distributions are capable of providing good estimates of the bonded radii of the atoms and the properties of the electron-density distributions at the bond-critical points. Because the procrystal model is so fast to compute, it is especially useful in addressing the question as to whether a pair of atoms is bonded or not. If the Bader criteria for bonding are accepted, then the successful generation of the bond-critical points by the procrystal model demonstrates that bonding is an atomic feature. The main difference between the critical-point properties of the procrystal and the ab initio model is that the curvature in the electron density perpendicular to the bond path of the ab initio model is sharper than for the procrystal model. This is interpreted as indicating that the electrons that migrate into a bond originate from its sides, and not from the regions closer to the nuclei. This observation also suggests that ab initio optimization routines could see an improvement in speed if the parameters relating to the angular components of atomic wave functions were to vary before the radial components.

Iron Diffusion in Single-Crystal Diopside

 Iron tracer diffusion experiments in diopside have been performed using natural and synthetic single crystals of diopside, and stable iron tracers enriched in ⁵⁴Fe, at temperatures in the range 950–1100 °C, total pressure 1 atm, for times up to 29 days. Iron isotope diffusion profiles were determined with an ion microprobe. For experiments performed at log pO₂ = −13, in directions parallel to the c axis and the b axis of two natural, low iron (Fe ∼ 1.8 at %) diopsides, the data obey a single Arrhenius relationship of the form D = 6.22_−5.9 ^+49.6×10⁻¹⁵ exp(−161.5 ± 35.0 kJ mol⁻¹/RT) m² s⁻¹. A single datum for iron diffusion in iron-free, single-crystal diopside at 1050 °C, is approximately 1 order of magnitude slower than in the natural crystals. The pO₂ dependence of iron diffusion in natural crystals at 1050 °C (power exponent = 0.229 ± 0.036) indicates a vacancy mechanism; this is consistent with the results of unpublished atomistic simulation studies. There is no evidence of anisotropy for iron diffusion in diopside. Received: 16 March 1999 / Accepted: 10 April 2000
