In addition, the S-isotope fractionations of Sakai (1968) have been recalculated by fitting theoretical data to ln 1000 alpha = a *10^6/T^2+b*10^3/T+c using the lm function of R software.

Siderite acid fractionation factors for sealed and open vessel digestions at 70°C and 100°C The oxygen isotope composition of siderites can be used to deduce the paleoenvironmental conditions under which the mineral formed. However, it is not clear whether the published fractionation factors (αCO2-siderite) for the acid digestion of siderites are appropriate for modern “on-line” sample pre...

New: computing 1000 ln "alpha" returns a graph vs 10^6/T^2.

AlphaDelta a une nouvelle adresse web!

www2.ggl.ulaval.ca/cgi-bin/alphadelta/alphadelta.cgi

Nouveauté: le calcul de 1000 ln "alpha" produit un graphique en fonction de 10^6/T^2.

AlphaDelta AlphaDelta offre deux possibilités de calcul : 1) calcul du fractionnement isotopique (1000 ln α) à une température donnée (nouveau-avec graphique);2) calcul de la température d'équilibre isotopique pour une différence de composition (Δ). 1) compute the isotope fractionation (1000 ln α) for a given…
