  1. On apatite fission-track analysis and heat transfer processes in the upper crust

    Corrigan, Jeffrey DelonUniversity of Texas at Austin1990

    Fission-track ages and confined track-length measurements from detrital apatites recovered from Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 116 Site 717 and 718 cores of distal Bengal Fan sediments provide information on both the thermal history of sediments recovered at these two sites and the cooling rates …

  7. Integrating apatite (U-Th)/He and fission track dating for a comprehensive thermochronological analysis: refining the uplift history of the Teton Range

    Brown, Summer JasmineVirginia Tech2010

    … Inversion of the typical (U-Th)/He (AHe) and fission track (AFT) relationship in a few of the Teton Range samples is a result of intense zoning, primarily in apatite from Precambrian layered gneisses. Nonetheless, both the AHe and AFT ages consistently indicate slight differential uplift of …

    In this project apatite fission track and (U-T)/He thermochronometers are used to determine the cooling history of rocks from the coastal (south eastern New South Wales) and the interior (Bathurst area) regions of the eastern Australia high elevation passive margin. Two traverses across the coastal …
