Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Mineral
  • Oxygen
  • Solar System

Alexander N. Krot mostly deals with Chondrite, Chondrule, Mineralogy, Formation and evolution of the Solar System and Astrobiology. His study in Chondrite is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Geochemistry, Olivine and Interplanetary dust cloud. The Geochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Melilite and Enstatite.

The concepts of his Chondrule study are interwoven with issues in Hibonite, Inclusion and Isotopes of oxygen. His Mineralogy research incorporates elements of Igneous rock, Magnetite, Isochron, Silicate and Analytical chemistry. His Formation and evolution of the Solar System research incorporates themes from Planetesimal, Protoplanetary disk and Presolar grains.

His most cited work include:

  • Comet 81P/Wild 2 under a microscope. (742 citations)
  • Lead isotopic ages of chondrules and calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions. (619 citations)
  • Mineralogy and petrology of comet 81P/wild 2 nucleus samples (545 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Chondrite, Chondrule, Geochemistry, Mineralogy and Olivine. The various areas that Alexander N. Krot examines in his Chondrite study include Formation and evolution of the Solar System and Analytical chemistry. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Enstatite, Refractory and Isotopes of oxygen.

His study explores the link between Geochemistry and topics such as Melilite that cross with problems in Anorthite. His Mineralogy study incorporates themes from Parent body, Troilite, Spinel, Silicate and Allende meteorite. His research in Olivine intersects with topics in Ordinary chondrite and Forsterite.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Chondrite (70.88%)
  • Chondrule (48.77%)
  • Geochemistry (42.46%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2020)?

  • Chondrite (70.88%)
  • Geochemistry (42.46%)
  • Meteorite (31.93%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary scientific interests are in Chondrite, Geochemistry, Meteorite, Chondrule and Astrobiology. His Chondrite research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Refractory, Mineralogy, Olivine and Analytical chemistry. Alexander N. Krot interconnects Murchison meteorite and Mineral in the investigation of issues within Geochemistry.

Alexander N. Krot combines subjects such as Electron microprobe and Protoplanetary disk with his study of Meteorite. Alexander N. Krot studied Chondrule and Igneous rock that intersect with Aluminium. The Formation and evolution of the Solar System, Solar System and Asteroid research Alexander N. Krot does as part of his general Astrobiology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Oxygen, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Isotopic evidence for primordial molecular cloud material in metal-rich carbonaceous chondrites. (103 citations)
  • Distribution of 26Al in the CR chondrite chondrule-forming region of the protoplanetary disk (70 citations)
  • A link between oxygen, calcium and titanium isotopes in 26Al-poor hibonite-rich CAIs from Murchison and implications for the heterogeneity of dust reservoirs in the solar nebula (64 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Mineral
  • Oxygen
  • Astronomy

His primary areas of investigation include Chondrite, Chondrule, Mineralogy, Geochemistry and Meteorite. His Chondrite study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Refractory, Protoplanetary disk and Olivine. His Mineralogy research integrates issues from Analytical chemistry, Isotopes of oxygen and Isotopes of magnesium.

His work on Nepheline, Petrography and Metasomatism as part of his general Geochemistry study is frequently connected to Porphyritic and Systematics, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Meteorite study which covers Matrix that intersects with Isotopes of nitrogen and Electron microprobe. In general Astrobiology, his work in Solar System and Planetesimal is often linked to Gas giant linking many areas of study.
