Fluid inclusions in modern and ancient buried halite from Death Valley and Saline Valley, California, USA, contain an ecosystem of “salt-loving” (halophilic) prokaryotes and eukaryotes, some of which are alive. Prokaryotes may survive inside fluid inclusions for tens of thousands of years using carbon and other metabolites supplied by the trapped microbial community, most notably the single-cel...

We study the collective behavior of inclusions inducing local anisotropic curvatures in a flexible fluid membrane. The N-body interaction energy for general anisotropic inclusions is calculated explicitly, including multi-body interactions. Long-range attractive interactions between inclusions are found to be sufficiently strong to induce aggregation. Monte Carlo simulations show a transition f...

The Bedsonia organisms, agents of the psittacosislymphogranuloma venereum-trachoma-inclusion conjunctivitis group, have been shown by serological techniques and by isolation to be the cause of a polyarthritis of sheep (Mendlowski and Segre, 1960; Storz, Shupe, Marriott, and Thornley, 1965; Norton and Storz, 1967). By similar methods, they have also been implicated in the pathogenesis of some hu...

Fluid flow in the mold region of the continuous slab caster at Panzhihua Steel is investigated with 0.6-scale water model experiments, industrial measurements, and numerical simulations. In the water model, multiphase fluid flow in the submerged entry nozzle (SEN) and the mold with gas injection is investigated. Top surface level fluctuations, pressure at the jet impingement point, and the flow...

Introduction: The Zhangjiapingzi gold deposit, located at the western margin of Yangtze Craton and controlled by Jinhe-Chenghai deep fault, is a newly discovered super-large deposit in Danba-Mianning metallogenic belt. ore bodies are hosted Middle Triassic (T 2 ) altered dolomite (Dm), have two types mineralization: rock type quartz vein type. Previous studies on this rare, especially ore-fluid...

Supercritical fluids derived from magmas may have different cooling paths depending on the confining pressures. Shallowly emplaced magmas generate supercritical fluids, which, during cooling form hypersaline fluid and vapor. Supercritical fluid derived from deeper emplaced magmas does not undergo phase separation and the fluids cool below the solvus curve to form a single aqueous-dominated phas...

The article presents the results of studying dynamics non-magnetic bubbles and droplets in a magnetic fluid placed an inhomogeneous field. Using digital high-speed system for video recording, mechanism detachment droplet from major part has been considered detail. It is experimentally demonstrated that size formed inclusions such magnetic-fluid does not depend on flow rate hydrostatic pressure....
