Metal Saturation and the Redistribution of Hydrogen in Earth's Mantle

Junjie Dong, Lars P Stixrude, Paul D Asimow +1

Iron disproportionation reactions in mantle silicates can produce metallic iron that drives Earth's deep mantle toward metal saturation under reduced conditions. Subducting slabs t…

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…
