    Biogenically induced bedded chert formation in the alkaline palaeo-lake of the Green River Formation

    Rhythmically bedded cherts are observed in both pelagic marine and lacustrine deposits, but the formation mechanism in the latter remains highly uncertain. Our study of alternating chert–dolomite beds in the Eocene Green River Formation, Utah, USA reveals dense accumulations of organic-matter spheres (30–50 μm diameter) of probable algal cyst origin in the chert layers, and centennial- to millennial-scale periodicities in chert layer deposition. A positive correlation between the degree of degradation of the organic spheres and Si distribution implies decomposition of algal organic matter lead to precipitation of lacustrine chert. As both alkalinity and dissolved silica were likely high in the palaeo-lake waters of the Green River Formation, we hypothesize that decomposition of algal organic matter lowered the pH of sediment pore waters and caused silica precipitation. We propose a formation model in which the initial abundance of algal organic matter in sediment varies with productivity at the lake surface, and the decomposition of this algal matter controls the extent of silica precipitation in sediment. The formation of rhythmically bedded chert–dolomite may be linked to centennial- to millennial-scale climatic/environmental factors that modulate algal productivity, which are possibly tied to solar activity cycles known to have similar periodicities

    Matter power spectrum in hidden neutrino interacting dark matter models: a closer look at the collision term

    No full text
    Dark Matter (DM) models providing possible alternative solutions to the smallscale crisis of the standard cosmology are nowadays of growing interest. We consider DM interacting with light hidden fermions via well-motivated fundamental operators showing the resultant, matter power spectrum is suppressed on subgalactic scales within a plausible parameter region. Our basic description of the evolution of cosmological perturbations relies on a fully consistent first principles derivation of a perturbed Fokker-Planck type equation, generalizing existing literature. The cosmological perturbation of the Fokker-Planck equation is presented for the first time in two different gauges, where the results transform into each other according to the rules of gauge transformation. Furthermore, our focus lies on a, derivation of a broadly applicable and easily computable collision term showing important phenomenological differences to other existing approximations. As one of the Main results and concerning the small-scale crisis, we show the equal importance of vector and scalar boson mediated interactions between the DM and the light fermions

SPIE 8114, Liquid Crystals XV, 811415 (7 September 2011). DOI: https://doi.org/10.1117/12.893208We report tunable single-mode lasing with an improved slope efficiency from a cholesteric liquid crystal (ChLC) cavity with a three-layered structure. The device consists of one photopolymerized ChLC layer with a wide reflection band, another ChLC layer with a notch reflection band and a Rhodamine-6G-doped ionic liquid layer acting as the gain medium. Single-mode lasing can be obtained in this device structure because the ChLC layer with the notch reflection band strongly reflects only one of the Fabry-Perot cavity modes. Tuning of the lasing wavelength is achieved by tuning the reflection band of the notch ChLC. The device showed a maximum slope efficiency of 16%, which was found to be approximately 1.5 times larger than that of ordinary ChLC lasers doped with the pyrromethene 597 laser dye

    STUDY ON THE DEPOSITION OF DEBRIS FLOWS (1)-DEPOSITION DUE TO ABRUPT CHANGE OF BED SLOPE-

    Stoppage and deposition of debris flows due to an abrupt flattening of channel slope aretheoretically and experimentally studied.A critical slope is defined as a function of concentration, angle of repose and densities of debrisand water. On a channel steeper than that slope debris can flow without any deposition. Thecapacities of the conveyance of the channels in such cases are discussed.Another critical slope, on a channel flatter than which a debris flow deposits with that slopeangle is obtained. This critical slope is a function of water discharge in the debris flow and the phy-sical properties of the deposit. Depositting processes in such cases are mathematically modeled.A debris flow can flow with partial deposition on the channel of which slope is between thetwo critical slopes. The process of channel bed variation in such a case is also treated.Theoretically obtained results are proved valid by the experiments.Stoppage and deposition of debris flows due to an abrupt flattening of channel slope aretheoretically and experimentally studied.A critical slope is defined as a function of concentration, angle of repose and densities of debrisand water.
