Offer Description
The person recruited will work as part of the SEPtiM ERC project, which aims to understand the solidification process in the Earth's early mantle and its geophysical and geochemical consequences.
She will carry out computational fluid dynamics experiments to model the interactions between the solid matrix and the liquid phase, as well as their chemical exchanges, and the distribution of major and minor elements during melting and solidification. Particular emphasis will be placed on identifying the conditions favourable to the generation of compositional heterogeneities resulting from the complete solidification of terrestrial magmatic oceans. This project will be based on the use and modification of a pre-existing in-house two-phase flow code in @D, and the development of a two-phase code in the mushy regime in 3D spherics based on StreamV.
Activities will include :
- Implementation of the above tasks,
- Validation and interpretation of data,
- Presentation of results at international conferences,
- Writing articles,
- Working closely with PhD students and other members of the SEPtiM ERC team,
- Participation in the development and management of the ERC SEPtiM research project.
A world-renowned geosciences research institute founded in 1921, associated with the CNRS, a component of Université Paris Cité and employing over 500 people, the IPGP covers all the disciplines of earth and planetary sciences through observation, experimentation and modelling, on all scales of time and space. The research themes are structured around 4 major unifying themes: the interior of the Earth and planets, natural hazards, the Earth system and origins. The IPGP is also responsible for accredited services in volcanology, seismology, magnetism, gravimetry and erosion. In particular, the IPGP's permanent observatories monitor the 4 active French overseas volcanoes in Guadeloupe, Martinique, Réunion and Mayotte (REVOSIMA). The IPGP houses powerful computing resources and state-of-the-art experimental and analytical facilities, and benefits from first-rate technical support. The person recruited will be part of the SEPtiM European ERC project team led by James Badro, and will work closely with Henri Samuel.
