Mn, Mg, and Zn ilmenite group titanates: A reconnaissance rietveld study
Abstract
Ecandrewsite-geikielite (Zn{sub 1/2}Mg{sub 1/2}TiO{sub 3}), ecandrewsite-pyrophanite (Zn{sub 1/2}Mn{sub 1/2}TiO{sub 3}), pyrophanite-geikielite (Mg{sub 1/2}Mn{sub 1/2}TiO{sub 3}), and ecandrewsite-pyrophanite-geikielite (Zn{sub 1/3}Mn{sub 1/3}Mg{sub 1/3}TiO{sub 3}) titanates were synthesized at 900-1000 deg. C at ambient pressure. All of the compounds adopt R- ilmenite-type structures. These structures were refined by the Rietveld method from X-ray powder diffraction data. Unit cell parameters and unit cell volumes decrease with decreasing average radii of the A{sup 2+} cation. All structures consist of distorted AO{sub 6} and TiO{sub 6} octahedra. In common with pyrophanite and ilmenite, the distortion of the AO{sub 6} octahedra is less than that of the TiO{sub 6} octahedra. Data are given for the volumes and distortion indexes of all coordination polyhedra.

Sulfur isotopic ratios of the magnetite-series and ilmenite-series granitoids of the Sierra Nevada batholith--A reconnaissance study
Whole-rock sulfur isotopic ratios were determined for four magnetite-series and two ilmenite-series granitoids from the central Sierra Nevada batholith. The magnetite-series rocks yielded {delta}{sup 34}S{sub (CDT)} of 1.6 to 4.0, and the ilmenite-series rocks revealed lower values of {minus}3.7 and {minus}5.3. These correlations are the same as those observed in the Japanese Islands arc. A majority of the Sierra Nevada granitoids are considered to have positive {sup 34}S values as a result of island-arc magmatism. The same magma was reduced by the introduction of organic carbon from the sedimentary wall rocks along the western zone where the depth of granitoidmore » -
X-ray Rietveld analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectra of the solid solutions [Eu{sub 2-x}M{sub x}][Sn{sub 2-x}M{sub x}]O{sub 7-3x/2} (M = Mg or Zn)
Two series of mixed oxides with formula [Eu{sub 2-x}M{sub x}][Sn{sub 2-x}M{sub x}]O{sub 7-3x/2} (M = Mg or Zn) have been synthesized. The study by X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy shows that the solids obtained are new non-stoichiometric solid solutions with the pyrochlore type structure. For both series a decrease of the cell parameter is observed when the degree of substitution, x, increases. The structural refinements (X-ray studies) were achieved in the space group Fd-3m, no. 227 (origin at center -3m) by using the Fullprof software. The Rietveld refinements show that the divalent cations M{sup 2+} (Mg{sup 2+}, Zn{supmore »
