Miller and Bolef (1968) treated the quartz oscillator and coating system as a single-dimensional, coherent acoustic resonator. Lu and Lewis (1972) developed the simplified Z match equation on that basis. Simultaneous advances in electronics, particularly the microprocessor, made it possible to solve the Z match equation in real time. Most coating process control units sold today use this sophisticated equation, which takes into account the acoustic properties of the quartz oscillator/coating system ... 

Characterization of discrete mineral phases present in the low temperature ash (LTA) of the lignites was accomplished by a combination of x-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. The procedure for producing the LTA follows that described by Miller (12). The percentage of calcite, quartz and pyrite are determined by x-ray...

The occurrence of highly reactive minerals, such as evaporitic minerals, pyrite and even calcite, in low proportions—a percent or less— in a given rock, e.g., calcareous sandstone, pyritic shale, marl with traces of anhydrite, granite with traces of calcite, may determine the chemical character of stream water (Miller, 1961 Drever, 1988). In a study of 200 streams from monolithologic catchments underlain by various rock types under similar climatic conditions in France, the relative weathering rate based on the cation sum (Meybeck, 1986) ranges from 1 for quartz sandstone to 160 for gypsiferous marl.

Miller and Bolef [74] applied a continuous acoustic wave analysis to the compound resonator formed by the quartz crystal and the deposited film. As shown in Fig. 5, they considered a continuous acoustic wave of frequency v propagating in the form of a damped plane wave from the quartz into the deposited film. At the interface, the wave is partially reflected and partially transmitted. Provided that the acoustic losses in the quartz and thin film are small, one can use the following relation to determine the complete set of resonance frequencies v (fundamental and harmonics) for the compound resonator ... 

The Strange Lake complex (a.k.a. the Lac Brisson complex), on the border of Quebec and Labrador, Canada, is a peralkaline granite which intruded metamorphic rocks and quartz monzonite. It occurs 250 km northeast of Schefferville, Quebec, and 150 km west of Nain, Labrador. The emplacement age of the earliest intrusion is approximately 1240 2 Ma (Miller et al. 1997). The location is given in Fig. 2.14.

Centurione and Kihara (1994) tested the application of F.L. Smidth s burnability equations and methods, including those of Fundal (1979), Theisen (1992), and Miller (1980), in an analysis of 12 samples of raw feed and corresponding clinkers. Cenfurione and Kihara used an hydrochloric acid digestion mefhod fo calculate Cj25 and concluded that coarse quartz (>45 pm) and limestone (>125 pm) should not exceed 2% and 6%, respectively, by weight of sample. 

Even more problematic is the hornblende migmatite on Spear Nunatak which is composed of layers of hornblende and of quartz-plagioclase (andesine) that have been folded and metamorphosed to the amphibolite facies (Fig. 7.7). Murtaugh (1969) considered the migmatites to be the oldest rocks in the Wisconsin Range and Minshew (1967) tentatively correlated them to the Nimrod Group of the Miller Range (Section 5.1.1).

Vapor-solid reactions are carried out in sealed evacuated Vycor tubes. These are designed to maintain physical separation of liquid Se and solid M to preclude a rapid violent reaction. Se vapor is distilled over M filings at temperatures slowly increasing up to 950°C over a period of 4 to 50 h. The temperature is then held there for an additional14to 150 h. Miller etal. [1,2], Miller, Himes [4], also see [3]. Forth preparation of M2S 3 with M = Sc, Y, Tb, Dy, Ho,Tm, Yb, the rare earth metals were placed in an AI2O3 boat to prevent reaction with the quartz ampule used as an envelope. In the case of Sc, the reaction was accelerated with I2 as a transport medium, Dismukes, White [5]. The direct synthesis was also used by Guittard et al. [6, 7], Muir [8], Kleber et al. [9], and Klemm, Koczy [16]. MI3 is used as flux for M = Ce, Pr, Nd byTakeshitaet al. [10].

A plane in a crystal, is identified by three integers h, k, /), called the Miller indices, which are in the same ratio as (1/x, 1/y, 1/z), the inverses of the coordinates of the intersections of this plane with the crystallographic axes (van Meerssche and Feneau-Dupont, 1977). Notations with four indexes h,k, — h+k), 1) are used in hexagonal structures, such as a-quartz, corundum a-alumina, or the wurtzite ZnO structure. If several planes are structurally equivalent, as the six (100), (TOO), (010), (010), (001) and (001) planes in a rocksalt crystal, this collection is denoted by 100 in curly...
