New thermodynamical pathways to explore the phase diagram of iron at Earth's core conditions
AGU 2024
study of earth's deep interior | 09 december 2024
Sebastien Merkel, Hélène GINESTET
Iron is the main constituent of the Earth's and terrestrial planetary cores. The crystal structure of Fe has been under question ever since the discov...
