Calibration of the anchizone: a critical comparison of illite "crystallinity" scales used for definition.
How useful is illite 'crystallinity' as a geothermometer?
The description given below is based on thin section study and illite crystallinity data.
The crystallinity of metal oxides has been found to increase with temperature.
Figure 7 also shows the calculated evolution of magma viscosity as a function of temperature, crystallinity and melt water content.
In (c) there is a single rock type, perhaps with decreasing pore size (or increasing crystallinity), leading to a monotonic increase in relative humidity.
The high crystallinity and viscosity of the water-rich but cool magma makes crystal fractionation inefficient.
This is confirmed by the illite crystallinity data.
Evolutionary convergence is recognized, but for the most part there is a relentless drive for rigour and a crystallinity of approach.
We now know what the physical characteristics of illite crystallinity are: crystallite size is the key.
Bacteria control the size, shape, composition, crystallinity, and intracellular organization of these particles to optimize their role as 'biological bar magnets'.
This situation can be likened to the position occupied by liquid molecules in comparison with the ordered crystallinity of solids and the complete randomness of gas molecules.
The grain boundary itself is considered to be of finite thickness, and since it involves a continuously varying order parameter measuring crystallinity, the model is of the 'phase-field' type.
