Extraterrestrial 3He estimation across the Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum at ODP Site 208-1266

In the deep-sea, the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) is often marked by clay-rich condensed intervals caused by dissolution of carbonate sediments, capped by a carbonate-rich interval. Constraining the duration of both the dissolution and subsequent cap-carbonate intervals is essential to computing marine carbon fluxes and thus testing hypotheses for the origin of this event. To this end, we provide new high-resolution helium isotope records spanning the Paleocene-Eocene boundary at ODP Site 1266 in the South Atlantic. The extraterrestrial 3He, 3HeET, concentrations replicate trends observed at ODP Site 690 by Farley and Eltgroth (2003, doi:10.1016/S0012-821X(03)00017-7). By assuming a constant flux of 3HeET we constrain relative changes in accumulation rates of sediment across the PETM and construct a new age model for the event. In this new chronology the zero carbonate layer represents 35 kyr, some of which reflects clay produced by dissolution of Paleocene (pre-PETM) sediments. Above this layer, carbonate concentrations increase for ~165 kyr and remain higher than in the latest Paleocene until 234 +48/-34 kyr above the base of the clay. The new chronology indicates that minimum d13C values persisted for a maximum of 134 +27/-19 kyr and the inflection point previously chosen to designate the end of the CIE recovery occurs at 217 +44/-31 kyr. This allocation of time differs from that of the cycle-based age model of Röhl et al. (2007, doi:10.1029/2007GC001784) in that it assigns more time to the clay layer followed by a more gradual recovery of carbonate-rich sedimentation. The new model also suggests a longer sustained d13C excursion followed by a more rapid recovery to pre-PETM d13C values. These differences have important implications for constraining the source(s) of carbon and mechanisms for its subsequent sequestration, favoring models that include a sustained release

退火对He注入及随后~(208)Pb~(27+)辐照的Al_2O_3单晶PL谱的影响

利用高能离子研究了110keV的He+注入Al2O3单晶及随后230MeV的208Pb27+辐照并在不同温度条件下退火样品的光致发光的特性.从测试结果可以清楚地看到在375nm,390nm,413nm和450nm出现了强烈的发光峰.经过600K退火2h后测试结果显示,390nm发光峰增强剧烈,而别的发光峰显示不明显.在900K退火条件下,390nm的发光峰开始减弱相反在510nm出现了较强的发光峰,到1100K退火完毕后390nm的发光峰完全消失,而510nm的发光峰相对增强.从辐照样品的FTIR谱中看到,波数在460—510cm-1间的吸收是振动模式,经过离子辐照后,吸收带展宽,随着辐照量的增大,Al2O3振动吸收峰消失,说明Al2O3振动模式被完全破坏.1000—1300cm-1之间为Al-O-Al桥氧的伸缩振动模式,辐照后吸收带向高波数方向移动.退火后的FTIR谱变化不大.

高温注氦及随后230MeV的~(208)Pb~(27+)辐照Al_2O_3的光致发光谱的研究

主要研究了110keV的He~+高温注入Al_2O_3单晶及1.1MeV/u的~(208)Pb~(27+)辐照注氦Al_2O_3样品的光致发光的特性。从测试结果可以清楚地看到在375nm,413nm和450nm处出现了强烈的发光峰。并且在600K,5×10~(16) ions/cm~2剂量点,样品的发光峰是最强的。这表明He~+注入Al_2O_3后使带隙中深的辐射中心复合的效率大幅度提高,极大的增强了其发光强度,而且发光伴随着蓝移现象。而经过高能~(208)Pb~(27+)辐照后的样品,在390nm出现了新的发光峰,从FTIR谱中我们能够看到,可能是~(208)Pb~(27+)辐照相对沉积膜出现一定的晶化,其中含有许多纳米尺寸的Al_2O_3晶粒所致。
