  • Anorthosites

    by Lewis D. Ashwal ...
    Series Book 21 - Minerals, Rocks and Mountains
    The idea for a book on anorthosites came to me in January of 1986 while returning to Houston after holiday festivities in Dallas. The original idea was a review paper on anorthosites, but by the time I reached Houston, the subject material I contemplated induding was obviously too extensive for a single paper. The Director of the Lunar and Planetary Institute, Kevin Burke, was receptive to the ... Read more

  • Metasomatism and the Chemical Transformation of Rock

    The Role of Fluids in Terrestrial and Extraterrestrial Processes

    by Daniel Harlov, Hakon Austrheim ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Fluid-aided mass transfer and subsequent mineral re-equilibration are the two defining features of metasomatism and must be present in order for metamorphism to occur. Coupled with igneous and tectonic processes, metasomatism has played a major role in the formation of the Earth’s continental and oceanic crust and lithospheric mantle as well as in their evolution and subsequent stabilization. ...

  • The Nature of the Hydrogen Bond

    Outline of a Comprehensive Hydrogen Bond Theory

    by Gastone Gilli, Paola Gilli ...
    Series Book 23 - International Union of Crystallography Monographs on Crystallography
    Hydrogen bond (H-bond) effects are known: it makes sea water liquid, joins cellulose microfibrils in trees, shapes DNA into genes and polypeptide chains into wool, hair, muscles or enzymes. Its true nature is less known and we may still wonder why O-H...O bond energies range from less than 1 to more than 30 kcal/mol without apparent reason. This H-bond puzzle is re-examined here from its very ... Read more

    Translated by R.S.Jr. Clarke, Frank Wlotzka ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Meteorites - as well as shooting stars and meteors - result from a collision of a solid body from space with our Earth, but only meteorites are able to penetrate the Earth's protective shield, the atmosphere, and fall to the Earth's surface. Before the return of lunar samples, they were the only materials from beyond the Earth which we could take in hand and study.This book gives a concise and up ... Read more
