This book was released on 2013 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Impact craters are often characterized by magnetic anomalies, which can be rather complex. Since such anomalies are important indicators of the properties of extraterrestrial bodies, a well-grounded understanding of the main magnetic mineral's behavior is very important. A good place to start such studies are the impact craters we find on planet earth. This study is focused on the magnetic anomaly of the Chesapeake Bay impact crater, USA, and gives a detailed characterization of the geological units, the magnetic minerals therein and their geological evolution. It furthermore comprises the results of explosive experiments, which were conducted in order to keep the effect of post-impact mineral modifications, such as weathering, apart from crystal defects introduced by shock. The distinctive part of this work lies in the combination of geological and physical techniques. This approach allowed an extensive interpretation of the microstructural and magnetic features in a general geological context.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Chesapeake Bay impact structure is a well-documented example of a small group of multi-layer, marine-target impacts formed in continental shelves or beneath epeiric seas. New sedimentological and stratigraphical data and results--mainly from Chesapeake Bay brim cores (Watkins School, Langley, and Bayside)--are compared to and compiled with key crater core data"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The authors have synthesized 16 years of geological and geophysical studies which document an 85-km-wide impact crater buried 500 m beneath Chesapeake Bay in south eastern Virginia, USA. In doing so, they have integrated extensive seismic reflection profiling and deep core drilling to analyze the structure, morphology, gravimetrics, sedimentology, petrology, geochemistry, and paleontology of this submarine structure. Of special interest are a detailed comparison with other terrestrial and extraterrestrial craters, as well as a conceptual model and computer simulation of the impact. The extensive illustrations encompass more than 150 line drawings and core photographs.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 988 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In 2005 and 2006, an international deep drilling project, conceived and organized under the auspices of the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program and the U.S. Geological Survey, continuously cored three boreholes to a total depth of 1.766 km near the center of the Chesapeake Bay impact structure in Northampton County, Virginia. This volume presents the initial results of geologic, petrographic, geochemical, paleontologic, geophysical, hydrologic, and microbiologic analyses of the Eyreville cores, which constitute a step forward in our understanding of the Chesapeake Bay impact structure and marine impact structures in general. The editors have organized this extensive volume into the following sections: geologic columns; borehole geophysical studies; regional geophysical studies; crystalline rocks, impactites, and impact models; sedimentary breccias; post-impact sediments; hydrologic and geothermal studies; and microbiologic studies. The multidisciplinary approach to the study of this impact structure should provide a valuable example for future scientific drilling investigations."--Publisher's description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developments in Solid Earth Geophysics 5: The Physical Principles of Rock Magnetism explores the physical principles of rock magnetism, with emphasis on the properties of finely divided magnetic materials. It discusses the origin and stability of rock magnetizations, the role of remanent magnetism in interpreting magnetic surveys, magnetic anisotropy as an indicator of rock fabric, and the relationship between piezomagnetic changes and seismic activity. Organized into 13 chapters, this volume discusses the properties of solids, magnetite and hematite grains, and rocks with magnetite grains. It also explains various theories and equations in studying rock magnetism. Different types of magnetization are discussed, including their occurrence, significance, and effects. Some of the types include depositional and chemical remanent and thermoremanent magnetization. In addition, this book explains the thermal activation and Piezomagnetic effects, as well as the reversals of remanent magnetism. This reference contains appendices with tables of relevant functions, such as Langevin Function. This book is a valuable source of information for physicists and geologists.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive treatment of fine particle magnetism and the magnetic properties of rocks. Starting from atomic magnetism and magneotistic principles, the authors explain why domains and micromagnetic structures form in ferrmagnetic crystals and how these lead to magnetic memory in the form of thermal, chemical and other remanent magnetizations. This book will be of value to graduate students and researchers in geophysics and geology, particularly in palemagnetism and rock magnetism, as well as physicists and electrical engineers interested in fine-particle magnetism and magnetic recording.
