Oxygen is the most abundant element in the Earth's crust, mantle, and fluids and therefore its
isotopic composition provides robust constraints on magma genesis. Application of oxygen …

Atomic scale diffusion in silicate melts plays a critical role in a variety of magmatic
processes, as long recognized by geologists (Bowen 1921). Geochemists have investigated …

Abstract Models for estimating the pressure and temperature of igneous rocks from co-
existing clino-pyroxene and liquid compositions are calibrated from existing data and from …

Apatite (Ap) dissolution and solubility in the peraluminous haplogranite system were
investigated in three sets of experiments at 750° C and 200 MPa (PH 2 o), as functions of Ap …

This paper reports experiments carried out between 1.5 and 2.3 GPa using synthetic
analogs of the molten peridotite system to investigate the effects of pressure (P), temperature …

This paper presents results of modelling reaction between peridotite and fractionating
tholeiitic basalt in simple and complex silicate systems. Reactions are outlined in …

The solidus and near-solidus melting behavior of a primitive undepleted peridotite
composition has been determined over a pressure range of 1.2–3.2 GPa at H2O saturated …

Finite difference numerical simulations were used to characterise the rates of diffusion-
controlled dissolution and growth of zircon in melts of granitic composition under …

WHEN silicate magmas of different chemical and isotopie compositions are brought into
contact, their equilibration is governed by the kinetics of diffusion. Here I present …

Electron microprobe results are reported for liquid and crystalline phases that were
synthesized at 5–22.5 GPa in multianvil experiments on anhydrous peridotite KLB‐1 [Zhang …
