Ram Babu and Atchuta Rao (1988a, b) presented a graphical algorithm for the interpretation of a self‐potential anomaly over a sheet. Ram Babu and Atchuta Rao (1988b) also presented an inversion method based on iterative optimization for the self‐potential anomalies caused by spherical, cylindrical, and sheetlike bodies. The theoretical models on which the algorithms are based are very simple: for the sphere, an electrostatic dipole; for the cylinder, a line dipole; and for the sheet two line poles, the negative one along the upper edge of the sheet and the positive one along its lower edge.

The inclined sheet is an important model for interpreting self‐potential (SP) anomalies over elongated ore deposits. Many techniques (Roy and Chowdhurry, 1959; Meiser, 1962; Paul, 1965; Atchuta Rao et al., 1982; Atchuta Rao and Ram Babu, 1983; Murty and Haricharan, 1985) have been proposed for interpreting SP anomalies over this model. We propose a simple graphical procedure for locating the upper and lower edges of an inclined sheet of infinite strike extent from its SP anomaly V(x) using a few characteristics points including [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] The amplitude ratio [Formula: see text], is shown to vary with θ, the dip of the sheet, making it possible to estimate θ. The two edges of the sheet are equidistant from the abscissa of [Formula: see text] the zero potential point. The sheet, when extrapolated onto the line of observation, meets the x‐axis at a point where [Formula: see text] From these characteristic features of V(x), the sheet can be located easily using the simple geometrical construction presented below.

A method for quantitative interpretation of self‐potential anomalies due to a two‐dimensional sheet of finite depth extent is proposed. In the case of an inclined sheet, positions and amplitudes of the maximum, minimum, and zero‐anomaly points are picked and then the origin is located on the horizontal gradient curve using the template of Rao et al (1965). The parameters of the sheet may be evaluated either geometrically or by using some analytical relations among the characteristic distances. When the sheet is vertical, the parameters may be evaluated using the positions of half and three‐quarter peak amplitudes.

In the present paper, the self-potential (sp) field is studied, which is produced by an inclined sheet (thin dyke) in an electrically homogeneous and transversely anisotropic ground. At first, the mathematical expression for the sp anomaly is deduced, by integration of the formula for the self-potential field produced by a point pole in a transversely anisotropic medium (Skianis & Herntmdez 1999). Then, the behavior of the sp curve is studied, for various angles of schistosity. The whole anomaly may be displaced along the horizontal axis and deformed in terms of amplitude and shape. Particular emphasis is given on the enhancement and suppression of the positive center of the self-potential, which depends on the values and orientations of the schistosity angle of the ground and the dip angle of the inclined sheet. These deformations of the sp anomaly, may introduce significant errors in the calculation of the parameters of the polarized body, if ground anisotropy is not taken into account. Therefore, new methodologies have to be developed, for a reliable quantitative interpretation of self-potential field data. In this paper, a direct interpretation method is proposed, which consists of two steps: In step one, the parameters of the inclined sheet are determined, assuming a homogeneous and isotropic ground. In this stage, any quantitative interpretation method, referred in the international bibliography, may be used. Secondly, the true parameters of the dyke are estimated, by a set of transformations in which the anisotropy coefficient and the schistosity angle are introduced. In order to apply this method, a priori information about ground anisotropy should be available, by dc geoelectrical and geological investigations. The efficiency of the method was tested on a synthetic model. In the first stage, the quantitative interpretation method of Murty & Haricharan 1985 was employed. In the second stage, the calculated parameters of the first step, served as input values of the transformations, and the real parameters of the inclined sheet were estimated. There was a good agreement between the parameter values of the synthetic model and the ones found by the proposed method. The results and conclusions of this paper, may be useful in detecting sulfide mineralization deposits or graphite.

Procedures are formulated using the Hilbert transform for interpreting vertical magnetic anomalies of (1) the sheets (finite and infinite depth extent), (2) the dike, and (3) the horizontal circular cylinder. The applicability of the method is tested on theoretical models. The method is also applied on the well‐known Kursk field anomaly of a sheet (infinite‐depth extent) and the field anomaly of a dike of Karimnagar, Andhra Pradesh, India.

The main landfill in the city of Rabat (Morocco) is based on sandy material containing the shallow Mio-Pliocene aquifer. The presence of a pollution plume is likely, but its extent is not known. Measurements of spontaneous potential (SP) from the soil surface were cross-referenced with direct measurements of the water table and leachates (pH, redox potential, electrical conductivity) according to the available accesses, as well as with an analysis of the landscape and the water table flows. With a few precautions during data acquisition on this resistive terrain, the results made it possible to separate the electrokinetic (~30%) and electrochemical (~70%) components responsible for the range of potentials observed (70 mV). The plume is detected in the hydrogeological downstream of the discharge, but is captured by the natural drainage network and does not extend further under the hills.

AbstractWe study the relation between class $$\mathcal {S}$$ S theories on punctured tori and isomonodromic deformations of flat SL(N) connections on the two-dimensional torus with punctures. Turning on the self-dual $$\Omega $$ Ω -background corresponds to a deautonomization of the Seiberg–Witten integrable system which implies a specific time dependence in its Hamiltonians. We show that the corresponding $$\tau $$ τ -function is proportional to the dual gauge theory partition function, the proportionality factor being a nontrivial function of the solution of the deautonomized Seiberg–Witten integrable system. This is obtained by mapping the isomonodromic deformation problem to $$W_N$$ W N free fermion correlators on the torus.
