    The high-temperature behavior of defect hydrogen species in quartz: implications for hydrogen isotope studies

    No full text
    A micro-infrared spectroscopic study of hydrothermal vein quartz known to have anomalous ?D signatures has identified two hydrogen reservoirs. In samples that generate an isotopic signature in accordance with that anticipated under the accepted model of quartz crystallization, submicroscopic aggregates of liquid water are the dominant hydrous species. Samples which generate an anomalous ?D signature contain, in addition to liquid water, structurally incorporated hydrous species associated with impurity cations.Infrared spectra obtained during in situ stepped heating experiments, coupled with infrared analysis at 25 ?C, demonstrate that hydrogen liberated between 300 and 500 ?C is chiefly molecular, liquid water. Hydrogen liberated at temperatures greater than 500 ?C is dominantly that associated with specific structurally incorporated cation defects. Since both defect hydrogen and molecular water are contemporaneously incorporated from the precipitating medium during crystallization, we propose that irregular ?D signatures, released following decrepitation at temperatures greater than 500 ?C, are due to isotopically fractionated hydrogen released from interstitial OH defect sites in the quartz structure.?D signatures obtained from stoichiometrically anhydrous minerals are generally interpreted under the assumption that the hydrogen measured comes uniquely from decrepitated fluid inclusions. Instead, we suggest that ?D ratios obtained from hydrothermal quartz reflect a sum of the contributions made by individual hydrogen reservoirs, each with a potentially distinctive ?D signature. Thus, if the overall ?D signature is attributed entirely to fluid inclusion phases, the nature of the precipitating fluid may be misinterpreted. Hydrogen extracted as molecular water at between 300 and 500 ?C provides a true reflection of the hydrothermal solution associated with crystal precipitation

    autograph letter, signed; 1p.Letter from Hubert Crackanthorpe to Grant Richards expressing regret for missing a meeting they had scheduled to dicuss the possibility of partnering to edit The Savoy: An Illustrated MonthlyCafe de la Paix 10 o'clock. Dear Grant Richards, I'm so sorry: we were delayed in starting, and didn't get here till twenty to ten. I do hope you didn't come and go away at last in disgust. If you did, please forgive me. However the loss is mine, for I have been thinking over the idea we talked of last night; I've reduced it to some sort of shape which I should have liked to have expounded to you. [?] sincerely, Hubert Crackanthorpe I shall hope to hear from you if really upon consideration, you think anything of i

    The Honorable John Gleeson graduated from Georgetown University in 1975 and earned a law degree from the University of Virginia School of Law in 1980. After serving as a law clerk for the Honorable Boyce F. Martin, Jr., U.S. Circuit Judge for the Sixth Circuit, Judge Gleeson was a litigation associate at Cravath, Swaine & Moore from 1981 to 1985. In 1985, Judge Gleeson became an assistant U.S. attorney in the Eastern District of New York. During the next 10 years, he served as chief of appeals, chief of special prosecutions, chief of organized crime and chief of the criminal division, the position he occupied when he was appointed to the bench. In 1992, Judge Gleeson was awarded the Attorney General’s Distinguished Service Award for his work as lead prosecutor in the case United States v. John Gotti, et al. Judge Gleeson was appointed as a U.S. District Judge on September 28, 1994. Judge Gleeson has been an adjunct professor at New York University School of Law since 1995. From 1990 to 1997, he was an adjunct faculty member at Brooklyn Law School. In 1994, he served as the John A. Ewald, Jr. Distinguished Visiting Professor of Law at the University of Virginia School of Law. He is a co-author of the treatise Federal Criminal Practice: A Second Circuit Handbook, LexisNexis (2007) (with Gordon Mehler and David C. James), and of the following articles: “Supervising Federal Capital Punishment: Why the Attorney General Should Defer When U.S. Attorneys Recommend Against the Death Penalty,” 89 Virginia Law Review 1697 (2003); ”Supervising Criminal Investigations: The Proper Scope of the Supervisory Power of Federal Judges,” 5 Journal of Law and Social Policy 423 (1997); “Sentence Bargaining Under the Guidelines,” 8 Federal Sentencing Reporter 6 (1996); and “The Federalization of Organized Crime: The Advantages of Federal Prosecution,” 46 Hastings Law Journal 1095 (1995) (with John C. Jeffries, Jr.). Judge Gleeson is chair of the Defenders Services Committee of the Judicial Conference of the United States
