CONSTRUCTION OF UP-TO-DATE AND HIGH-QUALITY ISOTOPE GEO- AND COSMOCHEMISTRY LABORATORY

As the first stage of the development of a new isotope geochemical proxy for understanding the evolution processes of the earth and planetary systems, we have, for the first time in the world, developed and constructed an accurate and precise method to detect fractionation of stable Eu isotope in rare earth elements (Fig. 1). Our method is expected to be a powerful tool to understand the evolution processes of the Earth System.
