Mineral-hosted melt inclusions have become an important source of information on
magmatic processes. As the number of melt inclusion studies increases, so does the need to …

Inclusions of basaltic melt trapped inside of olivine phenocrysts during igneous
crystallization provide a rich, crystal-scale record of magmatic processes ranging from …

Constraining the volatile content of magmas is critical to our understanding of eruptive
processes and their deep Earth cycling essential to planetary habitability [R. Dasgupta, MM …

The Chang'E-5 (CE5) mission has demonstrated that lunar volcanism was still active until
two billion years ago, much younger than the previous isotopically dated lunar basalts. How …

When Harry Hess first proposed the theory of seafloor spreading, he imagined that mantle
peridotite upwelling at midocean ridges reacted with water to form a serpentinite oceanic …

A new thermodynamic model is presented for calculating phase relations in peridotite, from
0· 001 to 60 kbar and from 800° C to liquidus temperatures, in the system NCFMASOCr. This …

Arc basalts are more oxidized than mid-ocean ridge basalts, but it is unclear whether this
difference is due to differentiation processes in the Earth's crust or to a fundamental …

Subduction zone basalts are more oxidized than basalts from other tectonic settings (eg,
higher Fe3+/∑ Fe), and this contrast may play a central role in the unique geochemical …

Archaean komatiites (ultramafic lavas) result from melting under extreme conditions of the
Earth's mantle. Their chemical compositions evoke very high eruption temperatures, up to …

The extent to which sulfur dissolves in silicate melts saturated in an immiscible sulfide phase
is a fundamental question in igneous petrology and plays a primary role in the generation of …
