岩石物理化学与岩石物理学

PETROPHYSICOCHEMlSTRY AND PETROPHYSICS

当今岩石学已成为研究地球及其动力学的“探针”或“窗口”。岩石物理化学是岩石学与物理化学之间的交叉学科方向。它的主要任务是模拟自然界的温度、压力、化学条件，再造各种岩石形成的作用过程。岩石物理学是岩石学与物理学的交叉学科方向。对岩石的形成过程的全面认识，不仅要从化学过程去了解，还必须从物理过程去探索。岩石物理学已成为当今地球科学研究的一个新领域。今后的发展将是岩石物理化学与岩石物理学的交叉结合，特别是可供化学与物理过程同时进行实验研究的新的仪器的诞生，以及地球深部物质的化学与物理学实验研究的新突破，将可能导致岩石学理论，以至地球科学的新的革命。

Today's petrology is regarded as a“probe”or“window” for study of the Earthand its dynamics.Petrophysicochemistry is the overlap of petrology and physicochemistry.It chiefly involves simulating the formative temperature,pressure and chemistry of rocksand recreating those conditions in the lab.Petrophysics is a hybrid of petrology andphysics。To understand petrogenesis fully.it is necessary to study both its chemical pro-cesses and the physical aspects.Petrophysics has become a pioneering field.An integra-tion of petrophysicochemistry and petrophysics will probably be one of the frontiers in theearth sciences,as new instrumentation for simuItaneous study of chemical and physicalprocesses and new results of experimental studies of the physics and chemistry of theEarth’s materials lead to a revolution not only in petrogenetic studies,but in all the earth sciences.
