DESCRIPTION:Dr. Arya Udry\, MSA distinguished lecturer and associate profe ssor\, UNLV\, Department of Geoscience. The abstract for today's presenta tion:\n\n\nFor a long time\, the Martian crust has been considered to be solely basaltic. These past six years\, with the analyses of surface rock s and additional meteorites\, it was shown that the Martian crust is more lithologically diverse than previously thought: Evolved rocks (i.e.\, hi gh in silica)\, including granitic rocks\, have been observed on the Mart ian surface by the Curiosity\, Mars Science Laboratory rover. In this tal k\, I present how we can better constrain the conditions of formation of martian evolved rocks including magmatic processes (e.g.\, assimilation a nd fractional crystallization)\, using thermodynamical modeling.\n\n\nDr. Udry bio:\n\n\nHer research program seeks to better constrain the interi or composition\, magmatic processes and general evolution of the planet M ars through meteorite and rover data analyses. Her martian studies includ e comprehensive petrological analyses of martian samples to mimic the sca le of terrestrial geological studies. She also analyzes martian rover dat a to understand the formation of rare martian rocks with felsic compositi ons. Udry is a participating scientist on the Mars 2020 mission.
