Nonlinearity of the post-spinel transition and its expression in slabs and plumes worldwide
Junjie Dong, Rebecca A. Fischer, Lars Stixrude +6
At the interface of Earth's upper and lower mantle, the post-spinel transition boundary controls the dynamics and morphologies of downwelling slabs and upwelling plumes, and its Cl…
Water storage capacity of the Martian mantle through time
Junjie Dong, Rebecca A. Fischer, Lars P. Stixrude +3
Water has been stored in the Martian mantle since its formation, primarily in nominally anhydrous minerals. The short-lived early hydrosphere and intermittently flowing water on th…
Thermal Evolution of Uranus with a Frozen Interior
Lars Stixrude, Stefano Baroni, Federico Grasselli
The intrinsic luminosity of Uranus is a factor of 10 less than that of Neptune, an observation that standard giant planetary evolution models, which assume negligible viscosity, fa…
Heat and charge transport in HO at ice-giant conditions from ab initio molecular dynamics simulations
Federico Grasselli, Lars Stixrude, Stefano Baroni
The impact of the inner structure and thermal history of planets on their observable features, such as luminosity or magnetic field, crucially depends on the poorly known heat and…
Stellar Chemical Clues As To The Rarity of Exoplanetary Tectonics
Cayman T. Unterborn, Scott D. Hull, Lars P. Stixrude +3
Earth's tectonic processes regulate the formation of continental crust, control its unique deep water and carbon cycles, and are vital to its surface habitability. A major driver o…
The EChO science case
Giovanna Tinetti, Pierre Drossart, Paul Eccleston +347
The discovery of almost 2000 exoplanets has revealed an unexpectedly diverse planet population. Observations to date have shown that our Solar System is certainly not representativ…
