  • The Bearhead Rhyolite, Jemez Volcanic Field, NM
    Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research 107 32001) 241±264 www.elsevier.com/locate/jvolgeores Effusive eruptions from a large silicic magma chamber: the Bearhead Rhyolite, Jemez volcanic ®eld, NM Leigh Justet*, Terry L. Spell Department of Geosciences, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, NV, 89154-4010, USA Received 23 February 2000; accepted 6 November 2000 Abstract Large continental silicic magma systems commonly produce voluminous ignimbrites and associated caldera collapse events. Less conspicuous and relatively poorly documented are cases in which silicic magma chambers of similar size to those associated with caldera-forming events produce dominantly effusive eruptions of small-volume rhyolite domes and ¯ows. The Bearhead Rhyolite and associated Peralta Tuff Member in the Jemez volcanic ®eld, New Mexico, represent small-volume eruptions from a large silicic magma system in which no caldera-forming event occurred, and thus may have implications for the genesis and eruption of large volumes of silicic magma and the long-term evolution of continental silicic magma systems. 40Ar/39Ar dating reveals that most units mapped as Bearhead Rhyolite and Peralta Tuff 3the Main Group) were erupted during an ,540 ka interval between 7.06 and 6.52 Ma. These rocks de®ne a chemically coherent group of high-silica rhyolites that can be related by simple fractional crystallization models. Preceding the Main Group, minor amounts of unrelated trachydacite and low silica rhyolite were erupted at ,11±9 and ,8 Ma, respectively, whereas subsequent to the Main Group minor amounts of unrelated rhyolites were erupted at ,6.1 and ,1.5 Ma. The chemical coherency, apparent fractional crystallization-derived geochemical trends, large areal distribution of rhyolite domes 3,200 km2), and presence of a major hydrothermal system support the hypothesis that Main Group magmas were derived from a single, large, shallow magma chamber.

  • Long Delayed Echo: New Approach to the Problem
    Geometrical joke(r?)s for SETI. R. T. Faizullin OmSTU, Omsk, Russia Since the beginning of radio era long delayed echoes (LDE) were traced. They are the most likely candidates for extraterrestrial communication, the so-called "paradox of Stormer" or "world echo". By LDE we mean a radio signal with a very long delay time and abnormally low energy loss. Unlike the well-known echoes of the delay in 1/7 seconds, the mechanism of which have long been resolved, the delay of radio signals in a second, ten seconds or even minutes is one of the most ancient and intriguing mysteries of physics of the ionosphere. Nowadays it is difficult to imagine that at the beginning of the century any registered echo signal was treated as extraterrestrial communication: “Notable changes occurred at a fixed time and the analogy among the changes and numbers was so clear, that I could not provide any plausible explanation. I'm familiar with natural electrical interference caused by the activity of the Sun, northern lights and telluric currents, but I was sure, as it is possible to be sure in anything, that the interference was not caused by any of common reason. Only after a while it came to me, that the observed interference may occur as the result of conscious activities. I'm overwhelmed by the the feeling, that I may be the first men to hear greetings transmitted from one planet to the other... Despite the signal being weak and unclear it made me certain that soon people, as one, will direct their eyes full of hope and affection towards the sky, overwhelmed by good news: People! We got the message from an unknown and distant planet.

The Friends of the Pleistocene is an informal gathering of Quaternary geologists, geomorphologists, and pedologists who meet annually in the field. The field guide has been separated into two parts. Part C (open-file report 454C) contains the three-days of road logs and stop descriptions. Part D (open-file report 454D) contains a collection of mini-papers relevant to field-trip stops. This field guide is a companion to open-file report 454A and 454B, which accompanied a field trip for the annual meeting of the Rocky Mountain/South Central Section of the Geological Society of America, held in Albuquerque in late April.

  • Bibliography on Videotelephony and Disability 1993-2002
    Stockholm Institute of Education The Disability and Handicap Research Group Bibliography on Videotelephony and Disability 1993-2002 Magnus Magnusson & Jane Brodin Research Report 36 ISSN 1102-7967 Technology, Communication, Handicap ISRN 1102-HLS-SPEC-H-36-SE FOREWORD This report is part of the work at the FUNKHA-group at Stockholm Institute of Education, The Disability and Handicap Research Group It is also a complement to an earlier report published in 1993 within the European project RACE 2033 (Research in Advanced Communications Technologies in Europe), TeleCommunity. The earlier report was a compilation of references collected from nine databases on the subject of videotelephony. That report presented comments on 190 references from 20 years of publication, most of them related to disability. It is still available and the information is still valid. The present report wishes to follow up on that earlier study, almost exactly a decade later. We have made similar literature searches in similar databases. The main difference between the present and the earlier report is the fact that the field is more difficult to grasp today because there are more information sources, expecially the Internet itself which did not exist in any extensive form at that time. This means that the present report is more focussed on projects and activities and less on formal research reports and papers. The final result in numbers, however, was almost the same as in the first study in 1993, a total number of 188 formal references. We have tried to give a short and condensed picture of the situation as we see it in the world today in this very special, promising and dynamic field.
