This dissertation discusses the experimental results designed to constrain the processes of MORB generation. The main focus of this study is to investigate the location and the related processes of the transformation boundary from spinel to garnet peridotite facies at subsolidus conditions, because the presence of garnet in melting residues has significant influence to the conclusion drawn from...

Title of Thesis: GROWTH AND FMR CHARACTERIZATION OF IN-PLANE MAGNETIZATION GARNET THIN-FILMS Degree Candidate: Jing Zhang Degree and Year: Master of Science, 2004 Thesis directed by: Professor Isaak D. Mayergoyz Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering Planar magnetization Bi-doped garnet thin-films were successfully grown for magneto-optical imaging applications. These fil...

Garnet could be the ultimate petrochronometer. Not only can you date it directly (with an accuracy and precision that may surprise some), but it is also a common rock-forming and porphyroblast-forming mineral, with wide ranging—yet thermodynamically well understood— solid solution that provides direct and quantitative petrologic context. While accessory phase petrochronology is based largely up...

The effects of water and iron content on the relative creep strengths of garnet and olivine were investigated by shear deformation experiments. arnet and olivine samples were sandwiched together between alumina pistons in a simple shear geometry and were deformed at P= 1–2 GPa, = 1473 K and strain rates ranging from 10−5 to 10−3 s−1 using a Griggs-type solid-medium apparatus. The stressand stra...
