Understanding the influence of bubble foams on magma permeability and strength is critical to investigations of volcanic eruption mechanisms. Increasing foam porosity decreases strength, enhancing the probability of an eruption. However, higher porosities lead to larger permeabilities, which can lessen the eruption hazard. Here we measure bubble size and wall thickness distributions, as well as...

The Rocknest aeolian deposit is similar to aeolian features analyzed by the Mars Exploration Rovers (MERs) Spirit and Opportunity. The fraction of sand <150 micrometers in size contains ~55% crystalline material consistent with a basaltic heritage and ~45% x-ray amorphous material. The amorphous component of Rocknest is iron-rich and silicon-poor and is the host of the volatiles (water, oxygen,...

edge of the character and chemical composition of the rocks of the moon, and thus possibly a decision of the question of the volcanic or non-volcanic origin of its "craters," might conceivably be arrived at by astronomers, through study of the maximum polarization angle of various portions of the moon's surface, such as the floors of the "seas" and the "walled plains." From the determination of...

The studied area is located in the north-east of Ardestan in Isfahan province. In Iran’s geological classification it lies in the central Iran zone. The volcanic rocks of the Kuh-e Dom area are predominantly rhyolite, rhyodacite, dacite, tuff, ignimbrite, andesite, banakite and basaltic-andesite. The major rock–forming minerals are quartz, plagioclase, alkali feldspar (orthoclase, albite), amph...

Introduction: The Miniature Thermal Emission Spectrometer (Mini-TES) instrument aboard the Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity has been used to acquire thousands of spectra from the surface of Merid-iani Planum [1]. The Mini-TES measures thermal in-frared energy at a similar spectral resolution and range to that of the Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES) aboard the Mars Global Surveyor orbiting ...

Venus is a planet that is similar to Earth in terms of some important planetary parameters (size, mass, position in the solar system, presence of atmosphere) and different in terms of other, equally important ones (absence of an intrinsic magnetic field, large atmospheric mass, carbon dioxide composition of the atmosphere, lack of water, very high surface pressure and temperature). The surface ...

Introduction: Martian meteorites have various characteristics, which are direct clues to understanding the petrogenesis of Mars rocks. The variation in oxidation state among the Martian meteorites must have important implications for redox conditions of the Martian crust/mantle and overall differentiation on Mars. Wadhwa [1] and Herd et al. [2] reported that Martian basalts were formed under a ...

1- Introduction The studied area is situated in northeast Varzeghan in East Azerbaijan Province. In the classification of the structural unites of Iran, this area is a part of Ahar-Arasbaran magmatic arc. The Cenozoic magmatism in the Ahar–Arasbaran region started in the Eocene with an intensive volcanic activity that produced widespread basic to felsic rocks and continued in the Oligo-Miocene...

The composition of the silicate portion of Martian regolith fines indicates derivation of the fines from mafic to ultramafic igneous rocks, probably rich in pyroxene. Rock types similar in chemical and mineralogical composition include terrestrial Archean basalts and certain achondrite meteorites. If these igneous rocks weathered nearly isochemically, the nontronitic clays proposed earlier as a...
