摘要: The velocity of compressional waves in several minerals, as a function pressure to 10 kb, has been measured. Data for single-crystal microcline suggest that measurements elastic constants should be made under hydrostatic all material not gem quality. Velocities some rocks with high calcium content correction the velocity-density-mean atomic weight relationship Birch CaO according Vp := + 4.60 [CaO] bρ, where brackets indicate fraction.
