Iron spin crossover in ferropericlase and its effect on lower-mantle thermal conductivity
Alexander F. Goncharov, Irina Chuvashova, Eric Edmund +29
Thermal conductivity of Earths lower mantle controls heat transfer across the core-mantle boundary (CMB) and strongly influences mantle convection. We report direct measurements of…
