Influence of oxygen on electronic correlation and transport in iron in the outer Earth's core
German G. Blesio, Leonid V. Pourovskii, Markus Aichhorn +3
Knowing the transport properties of iron under realistic conditions present in the Earth's core is essential for the geophysical modeling of Earth's magnetic field generation. Besi…
Structure of graphene and a surface carbide grown on the (0001) surface of rhenium
Estelle Mazaleyrat, Monica Pozzo, Dario Alfè +7
Transition metal surfaces catalyse a broad range of thermally-activated reactions involving carbon-containing-species -- from atomic carbon to small hydrocarbons or organic molecul…
Electronic correlations and transport in iron at Earth's core conditions
L. V. Pourovskii, J. Mravlje, M. Pozzo +1
The transport properties of iron under Earth's inner core conditions are essential input for the geophysical modelling but are poorly constrained experimentally. Here we show that…
Melting curve of face-centred-cubic nickel from first principles calculations
Monica Pozzo, Dario Alfè
The melting curve of Ni up to 100 GPa has been calculated using first principles methods based on density functional theory (DFT). We used two complementary approaches: i) coexiste…
Transport properties for liquid silicon-oxygen-iron mixtures at Earth's core conditions
Monica Pozzo, Chris Davies, David Gubbins +1
We report on the thermal and electrical conductivities of two liquid silicon-oxygen-iron mixtures (FeSiO and FeSiO), represent…
Thermal and electrical conductivity of iron at Earth's core conditions
Monica Pozzo, Chris Davies, David Gubbins +1
The Earth acts as a gigantic heat engine driven by decay of radiogenic isotopes and slow cooling, which gives rise to plate tectonics, volcanoes, and mountain building. Another key…
