Electrical and Thermal Conductivity of Earth's Iron-enriched Basal Magma Ocean
Francis Dragulet, Lars Stixrude
The Earth's earliest magnetic field may have originated in a basal magma ocean, a layer of silicate melt surround the core that could have persisted for billions of years. Recent s…

Differentiation, the exception not the rule -- Evidence for full miscibility in sub-Neptune interiors
Edward D. Young, Aaron Werlen, Sarah P. Marcum +2
We investigate the consequences of non-ideal mixing between silicate, iron metal, and hydrogen for the structures of the cores of sub-Neptunes with implications for super-Earths, w…

MgO Miscibility in Liquid Iron
Leslie Insixiengmay, Lars Stixrude
We explore phase equilbria on the MgO-Fe join as a prototype of lithophile-core interaction in terrestrial planets. Our simulations, based on density functional theory, are based o…
