Predictions of observable properties by density-functional theory calculations (DFT) are
used increasingly often by experimental condensed-matter physicists and materials …

Zircon (ZrSiO4) is a common accessory mineral in nature, occurring in a wide variety of
sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks. Known to incorporate an assortment of minor …

We complete the development and description of a thermodynamic method for the
computation of phase equilibria and physical properties of multiphase mantle assemblages …

Enlarged and fully updated, this new edition takes into account the considerable
experimental and theoretical progress recently made in the field. Introduction to the Physics …

We present a new compilation of physical properties of minerals relevant to subduction
zones and new phase diagrams for mid‐ocean ridge basalt, lherzolite, depleted lherzolite …

Geothermics is an area of geophysics that studies the thermal state and history of the interior
of the Earth. Solar heat penetrates only into the topmost layers of the Earth's crust. Diurnal …

We present a theory for the computation of phase equilibria and physical properties of
multicomponent assemblages relevant to the mantle of the Earth. The theory differs from …

Progress in seismic methodology and ambitious large‐scale seismic projects are enabling
high‐resolution imaging of the continental crust. The ability to constrain interpretations of …

We use a self-consistent thermodynamic formalism to compute the phase equilibria and
physical properties of model mantle compositions, demonstrating that the seismological …

In this section the contribution of CPO to seismic anisotropy in the deep Earth with cases of
olivine and the role of melt is illustrated. The CPO in rocks of upper-mantle origin is now well …
