Equilibrium Fractionation of Non-traditional Stable Isotopes: an Experimental Perspective
In 1986, O’Neil wrote a Reviews in Mineralogy chapter on experimental aspects of isotopic fractionation. He noted that in order to fully understand and interpret the natural variations of light stable isotope ratios in nature, it was essential to know the magnitude and temperature dependence of the isotopic fractionation factor amongst minerals and fluids. At that time it was difficult to imagine that this would become true for the heavier, so called non-traditional stable isotopes, as well. Since the advent of the multiple collector inductively coupled plasma-source mass spectrometer (MC–ICP–MS), natural variations of stable isotope ratios have been found for almost any polyisotopic element measured. Although it has been known that as temperature and mass increase, isotope fractionation decreases very quickly, the MC–ICP–MS has revolutionized the ability of a geochemist to measure very small differences in isotope ratios. It was then that the field of experimental non-traditional stable isotope geochemistry was born. As O’Neil (1986) pointed out there are three ways to obtain isotopic fractionation factors: theoretical calculations, measurements of natural samples with well-known formation conditions, and laboratory calibration studies. This chapter is devoted to explaining the techniques involved with laboratory experiments designed to measure equilibrium isotope fractionation factors as well as the best practices that have been learned. Although experimental petrology has been around for a long time and basic experimental methods have been well-refined, there are additional considerations that must be taken into account when the goal is to measure isotopic compositions at the end of the experiment.

期刊介绍:
RiMG is a series of multi-authored, soft-bound volumes containing concise reviews of the literature and advances in theoretical and/or applied mineralogy, crystallography, petrology, and geochemistry. The content of each volume consists of fully developed text which can be used for self-study, research, or as a text-book for graduate-level courses. RiMG volumes are typically produced in conjunction with a short course but can also be published without a short course. The series is jointly published by the Mineralogical Society of America (MSA) and the Geochemical Society.
