Titanite petrochronology
MJ Kohn - Reviews in Mineralogy and Geochemistry, 2017 - pubs.geoscienceworld.org
Titanite (CaTiSiO5) is a common mineral in calc-silicates, metamorphosed igneous rocks,
and calc-alkaline plutons. The mineral was first named by Martin Klaproth in 1795 for its high …

Early Eocene (c. 50 Ma) collision of the Indian and Asian continents: Constraints from the North Himalayan metamorphic rocks, southeastern Tibet
Despite several decades of investigations, the nature and timing of the India–Asia collision
remain debated. In the western Himalaya, the leading edge of the Indian continent was …

How does the mid-crust accommodate deformation in large, hot collisional orogens? A review of recent research in the Himalayan orogen
The presence of hot, weak crust is a central component of recent hypotheses that seek to
explain the evolution of continent-continent collisions, and in particular may play an …

A review on out-of-sequence deformation in the Himalaya
S Mukherjee - Special Publications, 2015 - lyellcollection.org
Out-of-sequence deformation in the Himalaya has been caused mainly by thrusting. Out-of-
sequence thrusts, usually north-to NE-dipping foreshear planes, occur inside the Sub …

Long-lived (ca. 22–24 Myr) partial melts in the eastern Himalaya: Petrochronologic constraints and tectonic implications
Partial melting is thought to profoundly impact the rheology and deformation behavior of the
middle crust. Consequently, investigations of the pressure-temperature conditions of …
