Experimental Investigations of the Earth's Interior at Ultrahigh-Pressure

首席研究员将研究原始陨石在高压和高温下的熔化行为。这些实验将被设计成模拟一个成长中的原始地球达到最大半径时可能存在的深度条件。这项研究的结果将帮助科学家了解地球在其作为行星的最初阶段是如何发展的。

The principal investigator will study the melting behavior of primitive meteorites at high pressures and temperatures. The experiments will be designed to simulate conditions which may have existed at depth in a growing proto-Earth as it reached maximum radius. The results of this study will help scientists understand how the Earth developed during its earliest stages as a planet.
