Correlation of textures and slip behavior of hematite in natural and experimental faults
ONLINE POSTER SESSION FOR TECTONOPHYSICS I
tectonophysics | 22 january 2024
Alexandra DiMonte, Alexis K. Ault, Greg Hirth, Cam...
Common secondary minerals such as hematite influence fault rheology, and its variable grain size and textures reflect its formation and deformation co...

Creep Experiments on Talc-Quartz Aggregates at Slow Slip Conditions
RUPTURE AND DEFORMATION PROCESSES, FROM SLOW TO FAST AND FROM MICRO TO MACRO III POSTER
mineral and rock physics | 15 december 2023
Hannah Shabtian, Cameron D. Meyers, Greg Hirth
Slow slip events are quasi-stable, aseismic displacements along the subduction interface. The mechanisms of slow slip are not well understood, partly ...
