Structural and thermal evolution of the eastern Aar Massif: insights from structural field work and Raman thermometry

Abstract The thermo-kinematic evolution of the eastern Aar Massif, Swiss Alps, was investigated using peak temperature data estimated from Raman spectroscopy of carbonaceous material and detailed field analyses. New and compiled temperature-time constraints along the deformed and exhumed basement-co...
