The Isotope Laboratory is composed of members of the Department of Geosciences and Arkansas Center for Space and Planetary Sciences at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville. Our primary research focus is using isotopic analyses of terrestrial and extraterrestrial materials to elucidate the processes involved in the origin, formation and evolution of the Earth and the early solar system
