Described here are current and developing methods used to undertake quantitative experiments on fluid-containing systems from standard conditions to temperatures above 1,000oC and to megabar pressures. Written by 36 authors, internationally recognized as the active developers and users of these methods, who reveal their exact procedures (including the special tricks that have led to successful applications). Principles and components are specified in detail sufficient for the experimentalist to construct and operate his own equipment. Equipment and methodologies are explained for measuring solubilities, P-V-T properties, redox state, acidities, reaction rates, electrical conductance, spectra, and heat capacities. The book also includes discussion of the interpretation of data obtained by means of the nineteen methods here described.
