Paramagnetic properties of Cuban red mud at low temperatures
Journal Title: Geology, Geophysics & Environment - Year 2018, Vol 44, Issue 4
Abstract
The electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra of Cuban red mud have been measured at three different temperatures: 295 K, 150 K and 77 K. The broad absorption line with resonance fields ∼(1.7–1.8) kOe was observed at all temperatures with values of g-factor from 3.602 to 4.020. The temperature decrease resulted in an absorption line appearance with resonance fields of 3.252 kOe (g = 2.067) at 150 K and 3.339 kOe (g = 2.086) at 77 K. The ESR-signal amplitude with resonance fields ∼(1.7–1.8) kOe decreases and the ESR-signal amplitude in the field ∼3.3 kОе increases with reduction in temperature.

The influence of alkali concentration and temperature on chemical activation of halloysite
The influence of alkali activation on clay minerals is not thoroughly investigated, particularly in terms of its impact on adsorption possibilities of clay minerals. One of the studied applications of base treated clay m...
Analysis of the trace fossils from Paleogene formations of the Central Western Carpathian (Orava region)
Up to now only little attention was dedicated to the study of the trace fossils in the development of the Central Carpathian Paleogene Basin in the Orava region. Occasional trace fossils findings from the Central Carpath...
New data on celestine-rich salts in the Wieliczka salt deposits
Pale brownish celestine-rich salt rocks were found near the Franciuszek Müller gallery, in the chambers of the 3rd level in the Wieliczka Salt Mine. The complex of rock salts subjected to exploration occurred within a la...
The influence of structural and functional changes on N-P-K input of agricultural origin and surface water quality in the upper Dunajec River basin in the years 1980-2010
The aim of the study was the prediction of N-P-K inputs (hereafter referred to as NPK load) from agricultural sources. The study aimed to determine relations between the structural changes and the N-P-K load (nitrogen-ph...
