Methodology for determining the electronic thermal conductivity of metals via direct non-equilibrium ab initio molecular dynamics
Sheng-Ying Yue, Xiaoliang Zhang, Stephen Stackhouse +3
Many physical properties of metals can be understood in terms of the free electron model, as proven by the Wiedemann-Franz law. According to this model, electronic thermal conducti…

High-pressure, temperature elasticity of Fe- and Al-bearing MgSiO3: implications for the Earth's lower mantle
Shuai Zhang, Sanne Cottaar, Tao Liu +2
Fe and Al are two of the most important rock-forming elements other than Mg, Si, and O. Their presence in the lower mantle's most abundant minerals, MgSiO_3 bridgmanite, MgSiO_3 po…
