EXAMPLE. “Recrystallization is the change process of micritic dolomite (calcite) to crystalline dolomite (calcite). It is caused by thermodynamics and dynamics, leading to the crystal form change of dolomite (calcite) and coarser crystals.” https://lnkd.in/ebKRGBrE View in LinkedIn

BATHED IN PHOTONS. “Radio waves, gamma-rays, visible light, and all the other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic radiation can be described in terms of a stream of mass-less particles, called photons, each traveling in a wave-like pattern at the speed of light.” https://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/science/toolbox/emspectrum1.html#:~:text=Radio%20waves%2C%20gamma%2Drays%2C,at%20the%20speed%20of%20light View in LinkedIn

CONSTANT CHANGE. “Metasomatism: is a metamorphic process by which the chemical composition of a rock or rock portion is altered in a pervasive manner and which involves the introduction and/or removal of chemical components as a result of the interaction of the rock with aqueous fluids (solutions). During metasomatism the rock remains in a solid state.” https://lnkd.in/ecuZyBBT View in LinkedIn

AQUEOUS RECRYSTALLIZATION. “Clay minerals are characterized by tetrahedral sheets occupied by Si and subordinately Al and Fe3+. These sheets join together along the surfaces with different combinations, giving rise to different layers, which in turn join to form different clay minerals. In the various clay minerals, the layers have different layer charges as a function of the substitution of higher charge cations with cations with lower charges (e.g., replacement of Si4+ with Al3+ in tetrahedral sheets).” https://www.mdpi.com/2075-163X/11/10/1057/htm View in LinkedIn

“FIGURE 1. Schematic representation of dynamic recrystallization in a deforming polycrystal. (a) Dislocations accumulate heterogeneously under an applied stress. (b and c) High-strain relict grains (gray) are progressively consumed by the nucleation of strain-free recrystallized grains (white), formed by grain boundary bulging (red arrows) and subgrain rotation (yellow arrows) nucleation mechanisms, causing an increase in the recrystallized fraction, X.” https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1029/2018JB016201 View in LinkedIn

BEYOND ETCH PLATES. “During dynamic recrystallization (DRX), strain hardening due to the accumulation of lattice defects is counteracted by both the creation and migration of grain boundaries, and the nucleation of new, strain-free recrystallized grains.” https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1029/2018JB016201 View in LinkedIn
