Dear colleagues,


We invite you to submit an abstract to our session concerning fluids and melts inside planets, which will be part of the upcoming 2017 Goldschmidt conference in Paris, France on August 13-18.

The abstract submission deadline is April 1st.
To submit your abstract, please visit: http://goldschmidt.info/2017/abstracts


Title: (04F) Fluids and Melts Inside Planets: Observations, Models and Experiments
Keynote: Paul Asimow (California Institute of Technology)
Invited Presenters: Razvan Carracas (CNRS) and Laura Cobden (Utrecht University)

Fluids and melts play an important dynamic role in the physical, thermal, and chemical evolution of planetary interiors. The presence of liquids in planetary interiors has a significant impact on a range of fundamental geological processes and physical properties (i.e. rheology, electrical conductivity, diffusivity, density, partitioning, among others). Because of this broad range of effects, studying geological fluids/melts is foundational to understanding the formation, differentiation, and evolution of Earth and other planetary bodies. However, the study of liquids at extreme pressures and temperatures presents unique challenges. And so, this session aims to unite researchers from geochemical, experimental, theoretical/computational, and seismic/geodynamical backgrounds who investigate the physical and chemical properties of melts. Relevant topics include but are not limited to: partial melting and melt extraction, liquid-solid partitioning, the role of fluxes on melting,
 experimental studies of melts at high pressures, the seismic detection of mantle melt distribution, geodynamic studies of melting in planetary bodies, and the study of melting at conditions relevant to exoplanetary interiors.



We hope to see you in Paris!
