A latent heat method to detect melting and freezing of metals at megabar pressures
Zachary M. Geballe, Nicholas Holtgrewe, Amol Karandikar +3
The high-pressure melting curves of metals provide simple and useful tests for theories of melting, as well as important constraints for the modeling of planetary interiors. Here,…
Polymorphism of superionic ice
Vitali B. Prakapenka, Nicholas Holtgrewe, Sergey S. Lobanov +1
Water is abundant in natural environments but the form it resides in planetary interiors remains uncertain. We report combined synchrotron X-ray diffraction and optical spectroscop…
Low thermal conductivity of iron-silicon alloys at Earth core conditions with implications for the geodynamo
Wen-Pin Hsieh, Alexander F. Goncharov, Stéphane Labrosse +5
Earth core is composed of iron (Fe) alloyed with light elements, e.g., silicon (Si). Its thermal conductivity critically affects Earth thermal structure, evolution, and dynamics, a…
