Journal ArticleDOI

Thermobarometry of mafic igneous rocks based on clinopyroxene-liquid equilibria, 0–30 kbar

TL;DR: In this article, a geothermometer for estimating the pressure and tem- perature of igneous rocks from coexisting clino- pyroxene and liquid compositions is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thermal and Magmatic Evolution of the Moon

TL;DR: The early views of the Moon manifested in mythology and art throughout the world were primarily tied to lunar and terrestrial cycles and the relationships between the Sun and the Moon as mentioned in this paper, and many of these early views were associated with the violent or catastrophic events in which the Moon was expunged from the Earth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Trace element partitioning during the initial stages of melting beneath mid-ocean ridges

TL;DR: This article measured partition coefficients for U, Th, REE, and high field strength element for orthopyroxene-liquid (3) and garnet-liquid pairs from 2.4 to 2.8 GPa.
Journal ArticleDOI

An empirical thermal history of the Earth's upper mantle

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used petrological and geochemical data from 71 ophiolite suites and greenstone belts, which range in age from 15 to 3760 Ma, to calculate the most primitive liquidus temperature for each rock suite.
Journal ArticleDOI

Near mantle solidus trace element partitioning at pressures up to 3.4 GPa

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present new experimental partitioning data for a range of petrogenically important elements at pressures of up to 3.4 GPa. But the available data indicate that the partition coefficients are pressure, temperature, and composition dependent, and therefore partitioning behavior over the appropriate range of pressure and temperature, in order to model continuous extraction of melt during the adiabatic rise of mantle material.
