Thermal history interpretation of AFTA data.
AFTA is based on the progressive reduction in track length as a function of temperature and time ("fission track annealing"). This reduction in track length is also manifested as a reduction in fission track age. New tracks are produced throughout...-

Factors Influencing Water Block Damage in Low Perm Gas Sands.
A recent major re-analysis of the results of the 1996-1997 mud testing program has provided a lot of insight into the factors driving mud performance in the field. To end 1997 we had carried out 22 core tests involving WBMs and 10 involving SBMs/OBMs...-

Reconstructing the Mesozoic Cenozoic exhumation history of the Irish Sea basin system using apatite fission track analysis and vitrinite reflectance data.
This paper summarizes new and recent apatite fission track analysis and vitrinite reflectance results from across the Irish Sea basin system and its margins, which provide new constraints on the magnitude and timing of post-Palaeozoic exhumation...-

Experimental evidence for the pressure dependence of fission track annealing in apatite.
The pressure experiments reported by Wendt et al. are cast in such a way as to question the fundamental basis underpinning apatite fission track thermochronology, implying the possibility of a large systematic error in previous interpretations. We...-
