This chapter reviews nonresonant, meV-resolution inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS), as applied
to the measurement of atomic dynamics of crystalline materials. It, in conjunction with a …

The Earth's core is about ten per cent less dense than pure iron (Fe), suggesting that it
contains light elements as well as iron. Modelling of core formation at high pressure (around …

The equations of state for solid (with bcc, fcc, and hcp structures) and liquid phases of Fe
were defined via simultaneous optimization of the heat capacity, bulk moduli, thermal …

This paper reviews non-resonant, meV-resolution inelastic x-ray scattering (IXS), as applied
to the measurement of atomic dynamics of crystalline materials. It is designed to be an …

Melting experiments were performed on the Fe–Fe 3 S system at high pressures between 34
and 254 GPa in a laser-heated diamond-anvil cell (DAC), using starting materials of fine …

We have examined the density and bulk sound velocity of liquid iron alloys,(Fe, Ni) X (H, Si,
O, S, C) 1-X, at Earth's outer core pressure and temperature conditions based on first …

Using ab initio simulations on Fe‐Ni‐S‐C‐O‐Si liquids, we constrain the origin and
composition of the low‐velocity layer E′ at the top of Earth's outer core. We find that …

We examined the density, bulk sound (compressional) velocity, and Grüneisen parameter of
liquid pure Fe, Fe100H28 (0.50 wt% H), Fe88H40 (0.81 wt% H), and Fe76H52 (1.22 wt% H) …

Phase relations, including the eutectic liquid composition in the Fe–C binary system, remain
unclear under the core pressure range, which makes estimating the carbon budget in the …

The relative abundance of light elements in the Earth's core has long been controversial.
Recently, the presence of carbon in the core has been emphasized, because the density …
