The Hasanbag igneous complex is situated near Sidekan, 100 km northeast of Erbil city, Kurdistan Region, within the Iraqi Zagros suture zone. It forms part an ophiolite-bearing terrane referred to as "Upper Allochthon" or Gemo-Qandil Group. consists predominantly calc-alkaline basaltic andesites cut by microgabbro and diorite dikes, which previously were interpreted a Eocene Walash volcanic group. However, 40Ar-39Ar dates on kaersutite (magmatic hornblende) indicate Albian–Cenomanian age...

Combining a homemade film blowing machine and an in situ synchrotron radiation source with small- wide-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS WAXS) capability, investigation of polyethylene (PE) has been studied. From the die exit to positions above frost line, four zones defined different structural features are observed SAXS WAXS measurements. In zone I, precursor crystal structures emerge from polymer entanglement network during cooling extension, which lead formation deformable...

With a combination of fast extension rheometer and in situ synchrotron radiation ultra‐fast small‐ wide‐angle X‐ray scattering, flow‐induced crystallization (FIC) isotactic polypropylene (iPP) is studied at temperatures below above the melting point α crystals (Tmα). A flow phase diagram iPP constructed strain rate–temperature space, composing melt, non‐crystalline shish, α&β coexistence regions, based on which kinetic dynamic competitions among these four phases are discussed. Above T...

Petrographic and diagenetic analysis of the Middle-Upper Jurassic successions (Sargelu, Naokelekan, Barsarin) formations boundaries between them in Sargelu area, Kurdistan region, N.E. Iraq was conducted based on lithologic description, thin section analysis, scanning electron microscopy. The study aims to define petrographic components processes that affect carbonate rocks succession studied section. Thirty-eight sections have been prepared, with five samples selected using S.E.M. technique...

The Pushtashan suprasubduction zone assemblage of volcanic rocks, gabbros, norites and peridotites occurs in the Zagros suture zone, Kurdistan region, northeastern Iraq. Volcanic rocks are dominant consist mainly basalt basaltic andesite flows with interlayered red shale limestone horizons. Earlier lavas tend to be MORB-like, whereas later display island arc tholeiite boninitic geochemical characteristics. Tholeiitic gabbros intrude fractionation trends typical crystallisation under...

Tectono-stratigraphic units within the Zagros orogen in northeast Iraq (foreland) and northwest Iran (hinterland) are correlated to provide an integrated map along collision zone. Structural cross-sections across suture zone reveal relationships between tectonic terranes of various ages different origins. Terranes oceanic affinity have accreted onto Arabian plate during collision-accretion events that started Late Cretaceous. The resulted closure Neo-Tethys Ocean construction a structurally...

SHRIMP U-Pb ages were determined on single zircon grains separated from combined samples (i.e. GA8-GA9) belonging to a trachytic andesite, Galalah area,Walash arc volcanic rocks, Northwestern Zagros Suture Zone, NE Iraq. The rock suite in the studied area ranges calc-alkaline alkaline (i.e., Ga8-Ga9). New reconnaissance of GA8 - GA9 reveal two episodes Palaeoproterozoic inherited growth:1- 1953±39 Ma cores. 2- ca. 1777±28 rims. This provides evidence for ancestry terrane crystalline...

The suprasubduction Bulfat Igneous Complex in NE Iraq is one of the discontinuous Neotethys oceanic lithosphere fragments preserved Zagros region. Reported here are new geochronological, petrological and geochemical data from this assemblage. At study locality, Eocene arc-related magmatic rocks intruded by extensive dykes Shaki-Rash gabbro. key reason to focus on these remarkable lack hydrothermal alteration, including preservation very fresh olivine. Besides olivine gabbros contain...

The crystallization of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO)-sodium iodine (NaI) composites is investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), extensional rheology, and in situ small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) with the aim demonstrating versatile roles played polymer-ion interactions. In isothermal quiescent process, a decrease crystal growth rate observed for PEO-NaI attributed to slow chain movement caused coordination between cations polymer. SAXS on flow-induced (FIC) exhibits enhanced...
