Carbonado compared to carbon‑12, relative to typical diamonds). Carbonado exhibits strong luminescence (photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence) induced by nitrogen and by vacancies existing in the crystal lattice. Luminescence halos are present around radioactive inclusions, and it is suggested that the radiation damage occurred after formation of the carbonados, an observation perhaps pertinent to the radiation hypothesis listed below. The origin of carbonado is controversial. Some proposed hypotheses are as follows: None of these hypotheses for carbonado formation had come into wide acceptance in the scientific literature by 2008. Supporters of an extraterrestrial origin of carbonados propose that their material source was a
Carbonado (Java) Repository instance is built, it only adheres to the standard interface. Access to specific features is provided by a "Capability" interface. Carbonado queries are defined by a simple filter expression and an order-by specification. Compared to SQL, the filter closely resembles a "where" clause. Filters can include joined properties and they may also include sub filters. This simple example queries for entities with a given message: Transactions are created from a Repository instance, and they define a thread-local scope. Multiple persist operations are automatically grouped together, and commit must be called to complete the transaction. This design approach shows how
