Abstract

Based on the previous studies, the author has proposed that the Collisions Aggregation Effect by the of a celestial body in the geological academic circles, which can lead to the endogenic process of the collisions aggregation point, the formation of volcanic eruptions and even the formation of LIPs. According to the principle of physics, this article further theoretically enriched the content of Collisions Aggregation Effect on the previous work and put forward the linear Collisions Aggregation Effect and nonlinear Collisions Aggregation Effect. On the basis of the global paleo-plate and paleogeographic data, this paper takes the Deccan LIPs and the Chicxulub crater as the research objects and conducts the research work based on the Collisions Aggregation Effect. The main conclusions are as follows: 1. The main eruption time of the Deccan LIPs is 66 Ma, while the Chicxulub crater was formed at about 65 Ma in approximate time; 2. At 65 Ma, the Deccan LIPs are located at 35°S, 65°E, while the Chicxulub Crater is located at 20°N, 50°W, both of which have the characteristics of the distribution of nonlinear Collisions Aggregation Effect on the Earth; 3. A Severe meteorite occurred at the Chicxulub crater in the Gulf of Mexico, causing Collisions Aggregation Effect, which may be an important reason for the formation of the Deccan LIPs; 4. The velocity vector direction of the Chicxulub meteorite may not be exactly pointing to the Earth's center, but is a little south-easterly direction; 5. Using the Collisions Aggregation Effect for the impact point or collisions aggregation point geographic location constraints, but also should taking into account the celestial body velocity vector direction; 6. May be precisely because of the meteorite and the Deccan LIPs formed by the Collisions Aggregation Effect of the Chicxulub crater caused the massive dinosaur-based mass extinctions at the 65 Ma of the K/T boundary and accelerated the Indian Plate drift.

Highlights

  • Based on the previous studies [1], the author has proposed that the "Collisions Aggregation Effect" by the impact of a celestial body collisions in the geological academic circles, which can lead to the endogenic process of the "collisions aggregation point", the formation of volcanic eruptions and even the formation of LIPs [2,3,4]

  • The "Collisions Aggregation Effect" of a meteorite impact proposed by the auothor is a idealized model [2,3,4], the earth is assumed to be a standard sphere, and the impact velocity vector direction is pointing to the Earth's center, form a distribution characteristic of the linear "Collisions Aggregation Effect"(Figure 4)

  • At 65Ma, the Deccan LIPs are located at 35°S, 65°E, while the Chicxulub Crater is located at 20°N, 50°W, both of which have the characteristics of the distribution of nonlinear "Collisions Aggregation Effect" on the Earth; (iii)

Summary

Introduction

Based on the previous studies [1], the author has proposed that the "Collisions Aggregation Effect" by the impact of a celestial body collisions in the geological academic circles, which can lead to the endogenic process of the "collisions aggregation point", the formation of volcanic eruptions and even the formation of LIPs [2,3,4]. According to statistics by Ren Zhenqiu [6], the impact time of the craters with diameter more than km around the world at present, depends on their respective size with the boundary of the era, period, epoch or stage, that have a good corresponding relationship. Under the work of the author, with the Chicxulub crater and the Deccan LIPs as the research object, on the basis of the global paleogeographic data about 65 Ma, it is concluded that 65 Ma ago, the Chicxulub crater and the Deccan LIPs are not in the symmetric point with the Earth as its center of symmetry in the ancient geography, but it is corresponding to the nonlinear " Collisions Aggregation
