The thermal conductivities of materials are extremely important for many practical
applications, such as in understanding the thermal balance and history of the Earth, energy …

The thermal conductivities of mantle and core materials have a major impact on planetary
evolution, but their experimental determination requires precise knowledge of sample …

Heat flux from the core to the mantle provides driving energy for mantle convection thus
powering plate tectonics, and contributes a significant fraction of the geothermal heat …

Thermal conductivity plays a pivotal role in understanding the dynamics and evolution of
Earth's interior. The Earth's lower mantle is dominated by MgSiO3 polymorphs which may …

The thermal conductivity of post-perovskite (ppv), the highest-pressure polymorph of MgSiO
3 in the Earth's mantle, is one of the most important transport properties for providing better …

The Earth has been releasing vast amounts of heat from deep Earth's interior to the surface
since its formation, which primarily drives mantle convection and a number of tectonic …

One of the central challenges in accurately estimating the mantle melting temperature is the
sensitivity of the probe for detecting a small amount of melt at the solidus. To address this …

The thermal conductivity of bridgmanite, the primary constituent of the Earth's lower mantle,
has been investigated using diamond anvil cells at pressures up to 85 GPa and …

Seismic and mineralogical studies have suggested regions at Earth's core-mantle boundary
may be highly enriched in FeO, reported to exhibit metallic behavior at extreme pressure …

Volcanoes represent one of the most critical geological settings for hazard modelling due to
their propensity to both unpredictably erupt and collapse, even in times of quiescence …
