Contents
After an earthquake, faults can recover strength through fault healing, but the mechanisms responsible are not well understood. Seismic slip may induce sintering, a bonding process between solid particles in contact under high temperatures without melting, which could produce a fault rock with elevated strength and chemical stability. Here we prese...
