Description
A controlled-atmosphere furnace has been constructed for X-ray absorption spectroscopy experiments under imposed oxygen fugacities at temperatures up to 1773 K. The use of the furnace is demonstrated in a study of the oxidation state of Cr in a basaltic silicate melt (mid-ocean ridge basalt) by K-edge XANES spectroscopy. This is the first time the Cr2+/Cr3+ ratio has been identified directly in an Fe-bearing melt. At typical terrestrial oxygen fugacities around half the Cr is present as Cr2+,...[Show more]
