Elastic Wave Velocities of Lawsonite and Its Implications for Seismic Velocity Anomalies in Subduction Zones

  • 摘要: 硬柱石(lawsonite)是俯冲带洋壳中的关键含水矿物,其含水量可高达11.5%,体积分数可达50%,且有较宽的稳定区间。因此,研究硬柱石的高压弹性性质对认识俯冲带速度结构和深部水循环具有重要意义。以天然硬柱石矿物粉末为初始材料,在7 GPa、1073 K条件下热压2 h,得到了致密的多晶硬柱石。同时,采用超声干涉法测量了硬柱石高达8 GPa的弹性波速和模量及其对压力的导数。研究发现,硬柱石的弹性波速和模量随压力的增加而增大,常温常压下的绝热体积模量和剪切模量分别为120(1)和51(1) GPa,其对压力的导数分别为5.7(1)和0.9(1)。利用硬柱石的弹性特性,结合前人的研究结果,建立了硬柱石榴辉岩模型,结果表明,硬柱石的存在可为中等地温俯冲板片(如Nicaragua)内部在60~90 km的速度异常提供合理解释。
