Meteorites and cosmochemical abundances

Planetary accretion, differentiation, solar system

Radionuclides and geochronology: Rb-Sr, Sm-Nd, Lu-Hf, Re-Os, U-Pb, Hf-W

Radiogenic nuclides: extinct isotope systems

Radiogenic nuclides: noble gases and stable nuclides

Cosmogenic and nucleogenic production of nuclide

The Primitive Mantle (BSE) - meteorites, Earth models, layering, heat budget

The Core - Fe + Ni + light elements, age of core formation, geodynamo

The modern mantle - geotherm, melting, layering, domains (reservoirs)

The Crust - oveanic vs. continental, continental growth, heat production and heat flow
