A major discovery in 1960 by Eugene Shoemaker was the presence inside the crater of coesite, a high-pressure form of silica (SiO2) and stishovite. The presence of these minerals confirmed ...

Stishovite is a key mineral for understanding the deep Earth water cycle because of its potential as a main carrier for water into the transition zone and lower mantle. During subduction-related ...

Silica at depths greater than 300km may be present in the form of the rutile-type, high pressure polymorph stishovite (P4(2)/mnm) and its thermodynamic stability is of great interest for understanding ...

Find more information about Crossref citation counts. When fine powders of vitreous silica, quartz, tridymite, cristobalite, coesite, and stishovite of known particle-size distribution and specific ...

This book deals with the phenomenological theory of first-order structural phase transitions, with a special emphasis on reconstructive transformations in which a group-subgroup relationship between ...
