Non-traditional Stable Isotope Geochemistry

Non-traditional Stable Isotope Geochemistry

The Isotope Cosmochemistry Laboratory is directed by Professor Kun Wang (王昆). The group works on a variety of samples including meteorites, lunar rocks and rocks on the Earth. Their research interests focus on:

  • Origin of the Earth and of the Solar System
  • Planetary differentiation: core-mantle segregation and crust formation
  • Transition metal isotope geochemistry
  • Analytical development and application of high precision isotopic measurements using Multi Collector Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (MC-ICP-MS)
