am interested in a wide range of experimental, analytical, theoretical,
studies with the primary objective of understanding the physical and chemical
processes controlling the origin and evolution of igneous rocks.
Experimental and theoretical studies of bubble nucleation and growth in
silicate melts
Experimental and theoretical studies of alkaline basalts
Decompressional melting in the mantle
Oxidation-reduction reactions in silicate melts
Volatiles in magmas

Laboratory

Experimental
Equipment: My experimental geochemistry lab is equipped with
seven cold-seal pressure vessels, one-atmosphere Deltech furnace, 4-Kb
Heskel high-pressure, high-temperature pressure vessel and 10-Kb internally
heated high-pressure, high-temperature pressure vessel. This equipment
together with a chemical lab and with computer facilities offers opportunities
to study various geochemical processes in igneous
rocks.
Analytical Equipment: The department of Geology has XRD, XRF
facilities and fluid inclusion study equipment. In addition, we have access
to the SEM, TEM and Electron microprobe labs that are located in the Materials
Science department. |
