Structure of earth’s interior is fundamentally divided into three layers – crust, mantle and core. Crust It is the outermost solid part of the earth, normally about 8-40 kms thick. It is brittle in nature. Nearly 1% of the earth’s volume and 0.5% of earth’s mass are made of the...
the spacecraft will observe microwave emission from below the “weather layer” of the planet's atmosphere (100 bars) to determine the deep abundance of water and ammonia. Also, the planet's magnetic field will be mapped in unprecedented detail. Together, these new measurements...
According to our point of view, global planetary evolution started from an originally homogeneous Earth. The differentiation of core and mantle started in upper layers. It is an important source of energy for all following processes.Heinz Stiller and Siegfried Franck and Diedrich Möhlmann...
Water is an important component of exoplanets, with its distribution, that is, whether at the surface or deep inside, fundamentally influencing the planetary properties. The distribution of water in most exoplanets is determined by yet-unknown partition coefficients at extreme conditions. Here we first...
partially covers the smooth layer on the left-hand side of the image. The boundary between two types of layers is indicated by a dashed curve. The frothy layer has many burst vesicles. A melt splash, located at the lower centre of the image, is attached to the surface of the frothy ...
Use rugs and fabrics in office settings to infuse effortless layers of warmth into a cold professional environment. Additionally, textures offer a tactile and visual break from the technology that dominates modern workspaces, fostering a more relaxed atmosphere. But that’s not all. Beyond their aes...
The mostly solid, rocky outer layers of the Earth, the crust and mantle, have low thermal conductivity, acting as a thermal blanket slowing down the passage ofheatto the surface. In the very early stages of the Earth’s history, internal temperatures andheatflows were probably much higher tha...
A motor includes a rotor with interior permanent magnets and a stator with teeth wound by concentrated windings. Each permanent magnet is split along a plane oriented towards the stator, and an electr
A variation of PEX pipe is a composite pipe made by laminating an aluminum layer between layers of plastic; such a pipe has the strength of PEX and the pressure capacity of the aluminum layer. In such a multi-layer pipe, the aluminum can act as a diffusion barrier, and, in addition, ...
In the Irminger Sea, deep convection takes place under favourable oceanic and atmospheric conditions15–21. Here we present new observational data from a unique cruise in winter 2015 that captured such a deep convective event. These observations document the properties of the deepest mixed layers ...
