TitaniQ under pressure: the effect of pressure and temperature on the solubility of Ti in quartz (2010, background): “Offsetting the capsule *1‐1.5 mm above the center of the piston-cylinder assembly (Fig. 2) introduced a small thermal gradient ( Watson et al. 2002 ) that caused large single crystals of quartz to grow from the slightly cooler capsule lid (Fig. 3). Although the quartz grows in a small thermal gradie”
The effect of H2O on the olivine liquidus of basaltic melts: experiments and thermodynamic models (2008, methodology): “This temperature difference has been independently determined using two different techniques: direct measurement with offset thermocouples, and temperature mapping using the kinetics of the MgO + Al 2 O 3 = MgAl 2 O 4 reaction (Watson et al. 2002).”
Experimental petrology of the basaltic shergottite Yamato‐980459: Implications for the thermal structure of the Martian mantle (2006, methodology): “Moreover, the very high melting temperature, which was 1540 °C at the multiple saturation pressure, places significant constraints on the thermal structure of the Martian mantle.”
