At the Top of Mt. Fuji - Uniting Theory and Observations of Oxygen Triple Isotope Systematics
Offered By: Mineralogical Society of America via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the intricate world of oxygen triple isotope systematics in this 27-minute conference talk from the Mineralogical Society of America's Short Course on Triple Oxygen Isotope Geochemistry. Delve into the theoretical foundations and observational data presented by authors Laurence Yeung and Justin Hayles, as they unify concepts at the symbolic peak of Mt. Fuji. Gain insights into molecular motions, mass differences, and the triple oxygen isotope relationship through advanced models like Monte Carlo and Cap17. Examine liquid water spectra, clusters, and models, while understanding the application of density functional theory and basis sets. Investigate observable parameters, silicon-oxygen bond lengths, and harmonic frequency scaling. Conclude with a comprehensive summary and engage in a thought-provoking question-and-answer session, enhancing your understanding of this crucial aspect of geochemistry.
