Ti-in quartz thermobarometry for Bhutan quartz mylonites

Ti-in-quartz thermobarometry (TitaniQ) is based on the pressure and temperature (P-T) dependence of the solubility of titanium in quartz (Huang & Audetat, 2012; Kawasaki & Osanai, 2008; Ostapenko et al., 1987; Ostapenko et al., 2007; Thomas et al., 2010; Wark & Watson, 2006). All trace element measurements were performed on the sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe reverse-geometry (SHRIMP-RG) at Stanford University. The Ti-in-Quartz data were interpreted in terms of deformation temperatures of quartz mylonites along the Main central Thrust.

石英钛温压计（TitaniQ）基于钛在石英中的溶解度随压力与温度（P-T）的变化规律（Huang & Audetat, 2012; Kawasaki & Osanai, 2008; Ostapenko et al., 1987; Ostapenko et al., 2007; Thomas et al., 2010; Wark & Watson, 2006）。所有微量元素测试均在斯坦福大学的高灵敏度反几何结构高分辨离子微探针（sensitive high-resolution ion microprobe reverse-geometry，SHRIMP-RG）上完成。本次石英钛含量数据集依据主中央逆冲断层沿线石英糜棱岩的变形温度开展解译工作。
