 V36: New developments in Geochronology

Description: Geochronology provides constraints on many events and
processes in Earth and planetary sciences. This session will take
stock of recent developments in instrumentation, techniques, theory
and data analysis which lead to more accurate constraints for rates
and time scales of geologic processes. We will emphasize research
that exemplifies the union of petrology and other disciplines with
geochronology (including thermochronology). Examples include studies
that address the significance of ages of nominally igneous minerals
(e.g., coupled geochemical and geochronological characterization of
erupted and/or intrusive crystal populations); successes in
radio-isotopic dating of previously stigmatized ( e.g., Ar/Ar dating
of glasses) or novel materials that facilitate new areas of
investigation; insights into the controls on diffusion parameters
(e.g., radiation damage, melt inclusions, etc.); advances leading to
better intercalibration where multiple geochronometers are used; and
technical advances (e.g., multicollector Ar/Ar; U-series by
LA-MC-ICPMS).
