兰坪盆地白秧坪铜钴多金属矿床中钴的成矿地球化学

白秧坪铜钴多金属矿床产于下白垩统景星组陆相红色碎屑岩中，呈似层状、脉状分布于断裂带内，蚀变 分带明显。研究表明：在原生矿石中钴主要赋存于独立矿物．辉砷钴矿中，同时钴可以类质同象赋存于砷黝铜 矿及少量含钴黄铁矿中：在氧化矿石中，以钴华存在于矿石的表面。辉砷钴矿的成分和Co／Ni比值揭示钴的成 矿作用与基性．超基性岩浆有关。矿床褪色蚀变岩、碳酸盐化蚀变岩矿石和正常岩石具有类似的稀土元素配分 模式。即富集轻稀土而重稀土相对亏损、铈异常不明显而铕异常显著，但稀土元素总量、分异程度存在明显的 差异。这可能与流体中带入稀土元素的方式、带入稀土的矿物类型和流体性质的差异等因素造成，反映成矿物 质来源存在差异。相对正常岩石的微量元素含量，元素CIl、co、As、 、Bi、Ag等在褪色蚀变岩、碳酸盐化蚀变岩 和矿石中均相对富集，但在在褪色蚀变岩以亲石元素富集最明显，而在碳酸盐化蚀变岩和矿石中以显著富集 亲硫元素(成矿元素)为主特征，表明在蚀变过程中，赋矿围岩本身没有为成矿作用提供主成矿元素，主成矿元 素源自幔源的基性岩浆。由此认为钴的成矿作用可能主要与喜马拉雅期幔源的基性岩浆活动有关。

山东地区中生代岩浆作用与地壳拉张-兼论煌斑岩与金成矿的关系

燕山期（205～65Ma）山东地区地壳活动强烈，构造体系已由古亚洲构造域完全转化为滨太平洋构造域，构造活动导源于太平洋板块对欧亚板块的俯冲。由于太平洋板块对欧亚板块的俯冲（NW向），鲁东地区岩石圈发生了快速拆沉减薄作用．同时鲁东地区也可能会出现地l漫柱的活动；另外，在太平洋板块俯冲作用影响下，炎区庐断裂（山东称沂沐断裂）带发生了大型左行走滑剪切和拉张活动。以上构造因素加上早白至世末一晚白至世期间燕山造山带的垮塌，都可能为山东地区中生代地壳拉张提供了动力条件。山东地区中生代（燕山期）基性脉岩特别发育，这些慢源基性岩脉充填张性裂隙，是大陆地壳拉张的标志；另外，山东地区也存在大量拉张背景下的燕山期火山岩和碱性岩。但关于它们的年代学和系统的地球化学研究还比较薄弱，且对其成因和形成的构造环境，仍存在着争议。本论文主要从同位素年代学、岩石化学、地球化学和Sr-Nd-Pb同位素方面对山东地区燕山期基性脉岩、火山岩和碱性超基性脉岩进行了系统研究。同时，考虑到鲁东地区煌斑岩中金含量普遍较高，且燕山期又是山东金矿的主成矿期，论文中对煌斑岩与金成矿之间的关系也作了一定的研究。通过研究，得出以下主要认识：1、火山岩为一套以钙碱性安山岩为主，含少量拉斑玄武岩和英安岩。成因上为富集地慢部分熔融作用的结果，但在成岩过程中也可能存在单斜辉石、斜长石、橄榄石和Ti-Fe氧化物等矿物的分离结晶作用。碱性超基性脉岩岩性上为单一的橄榄辉石岩，为富集地慢源低度（3.4％）部分熔融作用的产物，岩浆演化过程经历了以橄榄石为主的分馏作用。基性脉岩主要包括辉长岩、辉绿岩（主要分布在鲁西地区）和煌斑岩（以斜闪煌斑岩为主，同时含部分拉辉煌斑岩和角闪煌斑岩）（主要分布在鲁东地区），都为富集岩石圈地慢部分熔融的产物。三类岩石在侵位结晶过程都不存在明显的地壳混染。2、火山岩、碱性超基性脉岩和基性脉岩（除少数外）都形成于大陆板内拉张环境。3、富集地慢源区（EMI）的产生是俯冲并熔融的扬子下地壳物质进入华北岩石圈地慢并与之相互交代作用形成的。4、研究区中生代基性脉岩K-Ar年龄分布范围为72.2±1.70Ma～204.2±5.4Ma，且基本上在90～140Ma之间变化。综合碱性超基性脉岩和已知的青山组的火山岩、基性脉岩年龄数据，认为山东地区中生代地壳拉张至少存在四次：即约80Ma、100Ma、120Ma和 140Ma。但鲁东地区在地壳拉张方面可能存在着与鲁西地区不同的制约因素：即鲁东地区存在拆沉作用和可能存在地慢柱的影响，而鲁西地区可能受到了郊庐断裂的左行走滑剪切和拉张活动的影响。5、胶北地区煌斑岩为钙碱性系列，且金含量普遍较高（平均28ppb），该研究对胶北地区的找矿勘探工作具有一定意义。

Catalytic reduction of NO over in situ synthesized Ir/ZSM-5 monoliths

The catalytic performance of Ir-based catalysts was investigated for the reduction of NO under lean-burn conditions over binderless Ir/ZSM-5 monoliths, which were prepared by a vapor phase transport (VPT) technique. The catalytic activity was found to be dependent not only on the Ir content, but also on the ZSM-5 loading of the monolith. With the decreasing of the Ir content or the increasing of the ZSM-5 loading of the monolith, NO conversion increased. When the ZSM-5 loading on the cordierite monolith was raised up to ca. 11% and the metal Ir content was about 5 g/l, the NO conversion reached its maximum value of 73% at 533 K and SV of 20 000 h(-1). Furthermore, both the presence of 10% water vapor in the feed gas and the variation of space velocity of the reaction gases have little effect on the NO conversion. A comparative test between Ir/ZSM-5 and Cu/ZSM-5, as well as the variation of the feed gas compositions, revealed that Ir/ZSM-5 is very active for the reduction of NO by CO under lean conditions, although it is a poor catalyst for the C3H8-SCR process. This unique property of Ir/ZSM-5 makes it superior to the traditional three-way catalyst (TWC) for NO reduction under lean conditions. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Extremely active catalysts for the hydrogenation of terminal alkenes

Titanocene complexes combined with nanometer-size sodium hydride are extremely active and selective catalysts for the hydrogenation of terminal alkenes under normal pressure. The initial turnover frequencies (TOFinitial) may reach 100-300 s(-1) in the hydrogenation of 1-hexene. The highest catalytic efficiency turnover (TO) reaches 1.5 x 10(5) in 2 h for the hydrogenation of styrene. These catalytic systems exhibit specific selectivity toward alkene substrates. Only terminal alkenes can be hydrogenated. No isomerization of carbon-carbon double bonds occurs during hydrogenation. A suitable substituent on the cyclopentadienyl ring of titanocene and the use of nanometric sodium hydride are key factors in the high efficiency of these catalytic systems.

A homogeneous DNA hybridization system by using a new luminescence terbium chelate

Homogeneous DNA hybridization assay based on the luminescence resonance energy transfer (LRET) from a new luminescence terbium chelate, N,N,N-1,N-1-[2,6-bis(3'-aminomethyl-1'-pyrazolyl)-4-phenylpyridine]tetrakis(acetic acid) (BPTA)-Tb3+ (lambda(ex) = 325 nm and lambda(em) = 545 nm) to an organic dye, Cy3 (A,. = 548 nm and A,. = 565 nm), has been developed. In the system, two DNA probes whose sequences are complementary to the two different consecutive sequences of a target DNA are used; one of the probes is labeled with the Tb3+ chelate at the T-end, and the other is with Cy3 at the 5'-end. Labeling of the Tb3+ chelate is accomplished via the linkage of a biotin-labeled DNA probe with the Tb3+ chelate-labeled streptavidin. Strong sensitized emission of Cy3 was observed upon excitation of the Tb3+ chelate at 325 run, when the two probe DNAs were hybridized with the target DNA. The sensitivity of the assay was very high compared with those of the previous homogeneous-format assays using the conventional organic dyes; the detection limit of the present assay is about 30 pM of the target DNA strand.

Robust, High-Speed Network Design for Large-Scale Multiprocessing

As multiprocessor system size scales upward, two important aspects of multiprocessor systems will generally get worse rather than better: (1) interprocessor communication latency will increase and (2) the probability that some component in the system will fail will increase. These problems can prevent us from realizing the potential benefits of large-scale multiprocessing. In this report we consider the problem of designing networks which simultaneously minimize communication latency while maximizing fault tolerance. Using a synergy of techniques including connection topologies, routing protocols, signalling techniques, and packaging technologies we assemble integrated, system-level solutions to this network design problem.
