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

ISOLATED SYSTEM. “This assumption is valid for weakly bound electrons that, to a good approximation, can be treated as free particles.” https://opentextbc.ca/universityphysicsv3openstax/chapter/the-compton-effect/#:~:text=The%20Compton%20effect%20is%20the,wavelength%20of%20the%20incident%20radiation View in LinkedIn

“The moment one gives close attention to any thing, even a blade of grass it becomes a mysterious, awesome, indescribably magnificent world in itself.” (Henry Miller). https://lnkd.in/eaUq7Jwy View in LinkedIn

PRESUMPTION. “Following Compton’s argument, we assume that the colliding photon and electron form an isolated system.” https://opentextbc.ca/universityphysicsv3openstax/chapter/the-compton-effect/#:~:text=The%20Compton%20effect%20is%20the,wavelength%20of%20the%20incident%20radiation View in LinkedIn

DERIVATION. “To show that his model was correct, Compton used it to derive the expression for the Compton shift. In his derivation, he assumed that both photon and electron are relativistic particles and that the collision obeys two commonsense principles: (1) the conservation of linear momentum and (2) the conservation of total relativistic energy.” https://opentextbc.ca/universityphysicsv3openstax/chapter/the-compton-effect/#:~:text=The%20Compton%20effect%20is%20the,wavelength%20of%20the%20incident%20radiation View in LinkedIn

ENERGY-WAVELENGTH. “Put simply, a photon that has lost some of its energy emerges as a photon with a lower frequency, or equivalently, with a longer wavelength.” https://opentextbc.ca/universityphysicsv3openstax/chapter/the-compton-effect/#:~:text=The%20Compton%20effect%20is%20the,wavelength%20of%20the%20incident%20radiation View in LinkedIn

CONUNDRUM. “This model explains in qualitative terms why the scattered radiation has a longer wavelength than the incident radiation.” https://opentextbc.ca/universityphysicsv3openstax/chapter/the-compton-effect/#:~:text=The%20Compton%20effect%20is%20the,wavelength%20of%20the%20incident%20radiation View in LinkedIn
