Constraining the behaviour of volatiles in evolving rocky planets

该项目将研究岩石行星的早期岩浆演化，重点是挥发性行为。它涉及对一系列陨石样品的分析，以评估由于熔体脱气和撞击事件等过程而在母体中发生的挥发性损失的程度。根据这些分析的结果，该项目的第二个组成部分将涉及进行模拟岩浆海洋和影响熔融条件的实验，以更好地了解挥发性元素在形成行星体时的表现。这些分析和实验的结果将为行星演化模型提供重要的约束。

This project will investigate the early magmatic evolution of rocky planets, with a focus on volatile behaviour. It involve the analysis of a range of meteorite samples, in order to assess the degree of volatile loss that occurred in their parent bodies as a result of processes such as melt degassing and impact events. Depending on the outcome of these analyses, a second component of the project will involve performing experiments that simulate magma ocean and impact melting conditions, to better understand how volatile elements would have behaved in developing planetesimals. The results of these analyses and experiments will provide vital constraints for models of planetary evolution
