Raman and infrared spectroscopy of feldspars in lunar meteorites (Asuka-881757 and Yamato- 86032)

We investigated shock metamorphism of two lunar meteorites (Asuka-881757 and Yamato-86032). We measured shocked lunar feldspars with infrared and Micro-Raman spectroscopy. These methods are very sensitive for changing crystal lattice after amorphisation derived to shock metamorphism. With infrared spectroscopy were four different stage schocked feldspar measured, and with Micro-Raman spectroscopy 3 maskelynite grains were measured

Petrographic and micro-Raman study of thermal and shock metamorphism in Mezőmadaras, Knyahinya and Mócs L-Chondrites

We investigated three Hungarian L-chondrites: Mezőmadaras, Knyahinya, and Mócs sample. In Knyahinya chondrite, two phenomena were observed as follows: the weak mosaicism (S4) and mechanical twins in pyroxene. The Mócs sample is characterized by strong shock metamorphic effects such as high density of fractures and abundant shock-veins. Planar Deformation Features (PDFs) were identified in two olivine grains, and an olivine grain shows well-developed Planar Fractures (PFs). In Mezőmadaras sample, there are irregular fractures (S1), and PFs (S3), and mechanical twins in pyroxene. We have reinvestigated of these meteorite samples using Raman spectroscopy for the identification of shock-metamorphic effects, which occurred in the structure changes of olivine and pyroxene grains. The olivine doublet peak position is shifted to higher wavenumbers, due to partly disordered olivine structure. We observed that minerals with mechanical twins exhibit less interference color, compared to the non-shocked minerals, especially pyroxene. It is important to note that, the mechanical twins were complicated to describe, only the direction of the deformation was determined. On the basis of the measured FWHM, the following structural disordering degree of the selected samples can be determined as a (growing rate): Castle Rock, Mezőmadaras, Shergotty and Mócs. The result reveals that amorphization rate is the highest in Mócs and Shergotty pyroxene grains

Mössbauer characterization of microbially mediated iron and manganese ores of variable geological ages

A combination of various techniques was applied to investigate the mineralogy of the Neoproterozoic Urucum iron and manganese deposit (Brazil) and Carboniferous and Permian manganese carbonate deposits (China). The examined deposits exhibited signs of microbial mediation from Fe and Mn bacteria and cyanobacteria. The studied samples showed diversity in their composition and particle size. Probes from Urucum deposit revealed that the rocks consist mainly of hematite, showing Mn substitution which reflects the oxidation of Mn on the active surface of Fe-rich biomat. Nanominerals occurring in significant concentration also supported the microbial contribution to the formation of these ores. Representative samples of Neoproterozoic and Permian deposits showed considerable amount of mixed carbonates with variable composition. 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy analysis supported by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy data provided a detailed characterization of Fe-rich mineral phases of the samples, including metal ratio outlooks, particle size dimension and presence and type of impurities. Integrity and high resolution of the methods allowed to determine new features of the samples reflecting important signatures of microbial activity revealing the biogeochemistry of the biomat formation

Sense of Coherence and Gambling: Exploring the Relationship Between Sense of Coherence, Gambling Behaviour and Gambling-Related Harm

Understanding why some people experience problems with gambling whilst others are able to restrict gambling to recreational levels is still largely unexplained. One potential explanation is through salutogenesis, which is a health promotion approach of understanding factors which move people towards health rather than disease. An important aspect of salutogenesis is sense of coherence. Individuals with stronger sense of coherence perceive their environment as comprehensible, manageable and meaningful. The present study examined the relationship of individuals’ sense of coherence on their gambling behaviour and experience of gambling related harm. This exploratory study utilised an archival dataset (n = 1236) from an online, cross sectional survey of people who had experienced negative consequences from gambling. In general, a stronger sense of coherence was related to lower problem gambling severity. When gambling behaviour was controlled for, sense of coherence was significantly related to the experience of individual gambling harms. A strong sense of coherence can be seen as a protective factor against problematic gambling behaviour, and subsequent gambling related harms. These findings support the value of both primary and tertiary prevention strategies that strengthen sense of coherence as a harm minimisation strategy. The present study demonstrates the potential value of, and provides clear direction for, considering sense of coherence in order to understand gambling-related issues.This study was funded by the Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation, Grant VRGF1-13
