Mantle Dynamics in Super-Earths: Post-Perovskite Rheology and Self-Regulation of Viscosity
Paul J. Tackley, Michael Ammann, John P. Brodholt +2
Simple scalings suggest that super-Earths are more likely than an equivalent Earth-sized planet to be undergoing plate tectonics. Generally, viscosity and thermal conductivity incr…

The elastic constants of MgSiO3 perovskite at pressures and temperatures of the Earth's mantle
A. R. Oganov, J. P. Brodholt, G. D. Price
The temperature anomalies in the Earth's mantle associated with thermal convection1 can be inferred from seismic tomography, provided that the elastic properties of mantle minerals…

Quantum Monte Carlo calculations of the structural properties and the B1-B2 phase transition of MgO
D. Alfè, M. Alfredsson, J. Brodholt +2
We report diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) calculations on MgO in the rock-salt and CsCl structures. The calculations are based on Hartree-Fock pseudopotentials, with the single-particl…
