MANTELL

Three research themes:   

•   Petrology and geochemistry of primitive or planetary meteorites (s.l.),     
• Global geophysical imaging applied to the planets of the solar system, by electromagnetic induction methods,     
• Numerical modeling of mantle dynamics.

to understand :     

• The structuring of the telluric coats,     
• The relationship between mantle structure and primitive and recycled coats,    
•  The origin of terrestrial mantle heterogeneities (primitive or resulting from plate tectonics?), From the study of telluric objects,     
• The origin of volcanism for telluric coats without plate tectonics.
