Highly reflective, continuous smooth surfaces, known as "mirror-like surfaces" (MSs), have been observed in experimental carbonate-hosted faults, which were sheared at both seismic and aseismic velocities. MSs produced during high-velocity friction e... Read More about A new interpretation for the nature and significance of mirror-like surfaces in experimental carbonate-hosted seismic faults.
