Research Interests

    Experimental Petrology, Geochemistry, Igneous Petrology

  • Deep volatile cycling - water and halogen subduction, transport, and storage in the Earth’s mantle..
  • Volatiles in magmas – volcanic degassing of heavy halogens; halogen bonding in HP melts.
  • The chemical contribution of subducted lithosphere to mantle heterogeneities.
  • Earth’s core formation – HSE element partitioning and isotope fractionation between core and mantle.
