Most magmatism occurring on Earth is conventionally attributed to passive mantle upwelling
at mid-ocean ridges, to slab devolatilization at subduction zones, or to mantle plumes …

This paper reviews current knowledge about the Earth's core and the overlying deep mantle
in terms of structure, chemical and mineralogical compositions, physical properties, and …

Water vapour atmospheres with content equivalent to the Earth's oceans, resulting from
impacts or a high insolation,, were found to yield a surface magma ocean,. This was …

Water strongly influences the physical properties of the mantle and enhances its ability to
melt or convect. Its presence can also be used to trace recycling of surface reservoirs down …

The initiation mechanism of Earth's plate tectonic cooling system remains uncertain. A
growing consensus suggests that multi-plate tectonics was preceded by cooling through a …

Aims. The secondary atmospheres of terrestrial planets form and evolve as a consequence
of interaction with the interior over geological time. We aim to quantify the influence of …

The ultra-short-period super-Earth 55 Cancri e has a measured radius of 1.88 Earth radii.
Previous thermal phase curve observations suggest a strong temperature contrast between …

Large igneous provinces (LIPs) resulted from intraplate magmatic events mobilizing
volumes of magma up to several million cubic kilometers. LIPs and lavas with deep mantle …

Refractory oxygen bound to cations is a key component of the interior of rocky exoplanets. Its
abundance controls planetary properties including metallic core fraction, core composition …

Melting properties of the deep mantle remain controversial due to experimental difficulties;
eg, reports of solidus temperatures of mantle-relevant compositions span over∼ 700 K at …
