Ultrasonic Characterization of Bitumen with Pressure and Temperature: Implications for seismic monitoring of the Grosmont Formation
DownloadFall 2018
The vastly untapped carbonate Grosmont Formation in north-eastern Alberta may hold in excess of a couple of hundred billion barrels initial volume of bitumen in place. Bitumen, an ultra-heavy hydrocarbon oil, possesses a density comparable to water, but a dynamic shear viscosity million times...

The equation of state for cold ultra-dense matter has puzzled astrophysicists for decades. This is because the conditions of supra-nuclear density matter, such as those in neutron stars, are not terrestrially replicable. X-ray light curves from accreting neutron stars have proven to be useful...

Neutron stars are interesting due to their extremely large densities (∼ 1015 g/cm^3), and also because the accretion of matter from a companion star can spin them up to very high frequencies (∼716 Hz based on observations ). When we study black holes (BH), the only thing that we have to worry...

Refraction arrivals from the upper mantle were recorded on a 3500 km. profile stretching from Lake Superior to Alaska. Recordings from the middle section of the profile (1000 - 2000 km.) were digitized, and various frequency and velocity filters were used to enhance this data. One version of the...

Space radiation is often identified as one of the most prominent dangers of space exploration. It mostly originates at the Sun and streams into the space between planets, creating hazardous radiation conditions at every point of the solar system which is not shielded by an atmosphere. Therefore,...
