Gravitational energy released when Earth quakes: Heat supply for island-arc volcanism

Benjamin F. Chao, Sheng-An Shih, Frederic Deschamps +1

We address a long-standing paradox in plate tectonics concerning the thermodynamics of its very origin: What supplies the thermal energy for the intense island-arc volcanism at the…

Analysis of core-mantle boundary seismic waves using full\-waveform modelling and adjoint methods

Maria Koroni, Anselme Borgeaud, Andreas Fichtner +1

Using spectral-element and adjoint methods, we investigate body waves interacting with the Earth's most dramatic interface, the core-mantle boundary (CMB). Intermediate-to-high fre…

The Tidal-Thermal Evolution of the Pluto-Charon System

Amirhossein Bagheri, Amir Khan, Frederic Deschamps +3

Existence of subsurface oceans on the satellites of the giant planets and Trans-Neptunian objects has been predicted for some time. Oceans on icy worlds exert a considerable influe…

Heat-blanketed convection and its implications for the continental lithosphere

Kenny Vilella, Frederic Deschamps

Earth's continents are characterized by a strong enrichment in long-lived radioactive isotopes. Recent estimates suggest that they contribute to 33\% of the heat released at the su…

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…

Constraints on the composition and temperature of LLSVPs from seismic properties of lower mantle minerals

Kenny Vilella, Thomas Bodin, Charles-Edouard Boukaré +4

Here, we provide a reappraisal of potential LLSVPs compositions based on an improved mineralogical model including, for instance, the effects of alumina. We also systematically inv…

Constraints on Super-Earths Interiors from Stellar Abundances

B. Brugger, O. Mousis, M. Deleuil +1

Modeling the interior of exoplanets is essential to go further than the conclusions provided by mean density measurements. In addition to the still limited precision on the planets…
