Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Basalt
  • Igneous rock
  • Sedimentary rock

Allen K. Kennedy mainly investigates Geochemistry, Zircon, Basalt, Igneous rock and Mineralogy. The Mafic research Allen K. Kennedy does as part of his general Geochemistry study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Mantle plume, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His study in Zircon is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Metamorphism, Petrology and Recrystallization.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Basement, Metamorphic facies and Archean. His work carried out in the field of Basalt brings together such families of science as Martian, Breccia, Meteorite and Crust. His Mineralogy research incorporates themes from Ionic radius and Analytical chemistry.

His most cited work include:

  • SHRIMP U-Pb zircon geochronological and geochemical evidence for Neoproterozoic arc-magmatism along the western margin of the Yangtze Block, South China. (707 citations)
  • Zircon M257 ‐ a Homogeneous Natural Reference Material for the Ion Microprobe U‐Pb Analysis of Zircon (472 citations)
  • A temporal link between the Emeishan large Igneous Province (SW China) and the end-Guadalupian mass extinction (440 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Geochemistry, Zircon, Mineralogy, Basalt and Petrology. His study in Metamorphism, Igneous rock, Breccia, Gneiss and Metamorphic rock falls under the purview of Geochemistry. Allen K. Kennedy combines subjects such as Subduction, Mafic and Volcanic rock with his study of Igneous rock.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Greenschist, Archean and Geochronology in addition to Zircon. His Mineralogy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Trace element, Chondrite, Partial melting and Analytical chemistry. His Basalt research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Ridge and Magma chamber.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geochemistry (65.93%)
  • Zircon (46.15%)
  • Mineralogy (26.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?

  • Geochemistry (65.93%)
  • Geochronology (13.19%)
  • Zircon (46.15%)

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

Allen K. Kennedy mainly focuses on Geochemistry, Geochronology, Zircon, Petrography and Iron oxide copper gold ore deposits. Allen K. Kennedy incorporates Geochemistry and Feldspar in his research. Allen K. Kennedy combines subjects such as Block, Tectonics, Mineralogy, Shield and Banded iron formation with his study of Geochronology.

The various areas that he examines in his Banded iron formation study include Igneous rock, Compatibility, Proterozoic, Mafic and Large igneous province. His research in Zircon intersects with topics in Mass spectrometry and Clastic rock. The Iron oxide copper gold ore deposits study which covers Hematite that intersects with Standard solution and Matrix.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Matrix-Matched Iron-Oxide Laser Ablation ICP-MS U–Pb Geochronology Using Mixed Solution Standards (28 citations)
  • Zircon M127 – A Homogeneous Reference Material for SIMS U–Pb Geochronology Combined with Hafnium, Oxygen and, Potentially, Lithium Isotope Analysis (21 citations)
  • A multi-technique evaluation of hydrothermal hematite U Pb isotope systematics: Implications for ore deposit geochronology (20 citations)
