General Region

The stable remanent magnetization of the Western Channel diabase (1325–1785 m.y.) determined at 35 sites has a mean direction of 356, −50 (α95 = 6°) and a corresponding pole at 9 °N, 115 °W (A95 = 6°). Studies of rocks bordering the diabase show that this magnetization was acquired at the time of initial cooling. Preliminary results from older sediments, diabase, and porphyry (1770 m.y.) give directions of opposite sign, with corresponding poles in the same general region. These results, and others recently published, allow the path of apparent polar wandering, relative to the Canadian Shield, to be constructed in a preliminary fashion for the middle and earlier Proterozoic. This path, together with that previously obtained by other workers for the late Precambrian, suggests that during the Proterozoic the pole moved through two cycles of a roughly sinusoidal path with a peak-to-peak amplitude of about 90° of arc and a period of several hundred million years.

AbstractA widely used tool in studying quasi-monoperiodic processes is the O–C diagram. This paper deals with the application of this diagram in minor planet studies. The main difference between our approach and the classical O–C diagram is that we transform the epoch (=time) dependence into the geocentric longitude domain. We outline a rotation modelling using this modified O–C and illustrate the abilities with detailed error analysis. The primary assumption, that the monotonity and the shape of this diagram is (almost) independent of the geometry of the asteroids is discussed and tested. The monotonity enables an unambiguous distinction between the prograde and retrograde rotation, thus the four-fold (or in some cases the two-fold) ambiguities can be avoided. This turned out to be the main advantage of the O–C examination. As an extension to the theoretical work, we present some preliminary results on 1727 Mette based on new CCD observations.
