Book Sums Up Explosion of Research in Lithium Isotopes

Paul Tomascak

Lead author Paul Tomascak of the atmospheric and geological sciences faculty pulls together in a new book all of the modern research on the element lithium’s isotopes, a booming field of study with applications from exploring star formation to tracing sources of groundwater contamination. In the comprehensive book, Ad­van­ces in Lithium Isotope Geochemistry (Springer, 2016), Tomascak and co-authors Tomáš Magna and Ralf Dohmen summarize an explosion of research about lithium from 2004 to 2015.
